Hi -

I’ve got some oversized artwork that I’d like to print on glossy photo inkjet paper, but have been unable to find anything reasonably close.

I use Epson S041141 for 8.5x11, and have (what I hope is) the same material in A4 coming in, but I need to print an image approx 12.2", and, including printer limitations, that means approx 13" long, the the printer doesn’t accept anything wider than 8.5", and I REALLY don’t want to get into cutting down stock to fit the printer.

This leaves good old “legal” size as the closest I know of.

Anyone have a source (preferably in the US - importing something as trivial as computer paper seems a bit absurd)

Thanks!

That gets me 11x14 (which I would have to cut down to feed into the printer) - still looking for 8.5x14 glossy coated paper; Epson, HP are known to work, Koday is spotty
