Hi there,
I'm completely mystified. I've just made a series of prints on an Epson 4880, using Ultra Smooth Fine Art 17 inch roll paper. The paper is supposed to be cut to 17x22in, with the printed area somewhat smaller. And it turns out that in fact the printer is cutting to a length of about 22 5/8" instead. I've had two other people check my page setup and margin settings, and everything looks right. I've never measured the cut paper size before because they are usually being matted and framed, but these are to go in a 17x22 presentation box, so the size is important.
Can anyone help? Is there a slop factor in the cutting? It doesn't seem like it, since they are all an identical length, but perhaps it adds on a bit? How much? How can I get the printer to cut them at exactly the right size?
Please don't suggest I buy cut sheets, as I've already started the roll and can't afford not to use this one.
Thanks for any help provided,
Lucien
