Printing Vertical or Horizontal Banners (Large-Format Printing; Windows)
By automatic enlargement of a document created with an application software by the printer driver, you can print
maximum 18.0 m vertical or horizontal banners.
However, you may not be able to print 18.0 m due to restrictions in the settable document size according to the
application software.
This topic describes how to print a banner about five times as long as the roll width based on the following exam-

• Page size: Non-standard (100×500 mm [3.9×19.7 in])
