I very much like the B&W prints I get from the 2400. I have recently however been attempting to print 30 and 36 inch prints with only sporadic success. The first roll of paper I purchased is Moab Entrada Bright 300gsm Matte. I have successfully printed 3 or four but each took maybe 12 attempts at getting it through the rear loader. More often than not, after everything sounds as if it is going to work, I get a paper jam message. It then clears itself in a manner which would indicate that there was no paper jam.
This occurs largely in CS3 because I can't seem to get Lightroom to acknowledge custom paper sizes. The print is less that the 10,000 wide pixel limit I understand is built into LR.
Any suggestions? Am I just asking too much from the 2400? If so with great B&W prints as my goal, what would the next logical printer be. I like the panorama's that are about 12x30 or 36" than I can get from good scans from my Xpan.
Are there other matte papers in 13" rolls that might work better?
