Re: [Digital BW] Epson 2400, 13 x 36 inch panorama, I'll be dipped if I can cypher it out....

FWIW, if the 2400 is similar to my much older Epson, then there is a
panorama size in the drop down paper size menu Chris. As my printer is only
A4 sized, I am limited to 210mm x 550mm, but I would expect the maximum
paper size for your A3+ printer to be much larger of course. I have
successfully used 2 sheets of fanfold which is actually longer than the
print size, by the way, and so you should be OK with a roll feed I would
have thought.

Would someone take a moment and run me step by step through the
printing process for a 13 x 36 inch or mm/cm equivalent panorama off
a roll? I'm trying to print  6 elephants racing towards a water hole
in B & W!

I have made a couple of aborted efforts, on chopped off both ends
and the other two printed off center and only partially.
In the Print window I select roll not manual roll, manual roll is
for a feed through the front?
Do I use the banner or cut sheet mode?
If I use Banner do I tick "save roll paper option?"
If I use Cut sheet mode do I tick "print page frame option?"
I have to set the custom page size; I can either use 0.01cm or
0.01in,
Does 13 inches become 1300 inches and 36 inches become 3600 inches?

I really could use a step by step how to here, papers too expensive
to keep making mistakes..

Many thanks from Namibia
