Martin - 

For the 13" Somerset, you may also want to check Fotocare in NYC (212-
741-2990) and Warner Graphics in Maine (207-236-2065).  That's where 
I was referred.

I haven't bought Legion Photo Matte and Gloss in rolls.  The project 
I'm working on now is on sheets only.  I saw the rolls reasonably 
priced at GalleryPrint.com (under supplies).

For the Somerset 13" rolls, I've been using the 2000P.  For the matte 
and the gloss, I've been using sheets on a few machines that I'm 
testing, including the 1280 (which will soon be set up for 
piezography) and the Canon S800 (the best inexpensive printer I've 
seen to date.) I've also had my work printed on the 7500 and was 
blown away by the matte.  Wish I had a large format machine myself.  
Soon. . .
