16" roll paper in Epson 3880

DSLRnovice · 08-22-2018, 06:20 PM

Since Epson only offers the 17"x22" paper, and I would like to print at least 16"x24" from Full Frame DSLR, I was wondering about buying a 100 ft roll of 16" wide and cutting sheets to 24." My main concern is the curl from the roll.

Is this a bad idea?

This printer is said to print up to 17x37.5" Are there other sized papers of which I am not aware that would look as good as Epson Ultra Premium glossy or matt?

I would say check with Red River Paper and see what they have. I have some of their paper and it is great paper.

Thanks. Red River Paper does have the size I want. Will there be much time spent getting the same results? One thing I have been happy about Epson is the ease of printing as I see on my screen. I have always let Windows manage my color with little tweaking.
