* These applications allow for tiling of print pages, therefore allowing you to print beyond the printers maximum page length limit and print to the applications limits. The printer driver must be set for Roll Paper (Banner) mode so that page breaks at the printer’s maximum page length do not occur (in essence gives you a 0 margin for the bottom of the page).

9. When Page Setup is open, click on the down arrow for Custom Paper Size. NOTE: When creating the custom page size, divide the banner size by a value that will make it less than the printer maximum custom page size (90.5 inches). In this example we take (180/2 = 90), therefore the custom page size created would be 20x90 (inches). 10.

NOTE 1: When enabled, the first page will be printed first, instead of the last page first. Or Change the orientation to “Reverse”, then you don’t have to check the “Reverse Order”. NOTE 2: Always select the custom page size last, if not, it will default to other paper sizes. NOTE 3: Before printing a large document, make sure you have enough ink to prevent getting an Ink Out message, causing the print job to stop and not completing the entire print.
