I tried this evening to print a large panorama on 4 sheets of A4 (21 x 29.7 cm) photo glossy paper taped together using scotch tape on the backside. On this "piece" of paper of 21 x 118.8 cm I printed a large panorama (downloaded from internet) and it works ! The Epson Pro 3800 driver limits maximum length up to 9500 mm. Now with this UDPS-utility the maximum length can be up to 6.5 metres.
For most people this should be more than enough :).

Smile, I hope there will be somebody who can overcome the length limit on Canon printers. I have Canon i9950 A3+ printer and it would be nice to print larger formats on this printer.

I hope someone will fix this canon problem, but if printfab or turboprint RIP makers do not know how to do this there is very little hope. Except perhaps they do know but can't do this because it's not legal in some way.
