Bulent - my sense is that other-than-photo paper is too absorbent. Try it to confirm…
Translating your mm to inches, and rounding, it seems that your target is a page 8” x 16”. If you had a printer that accepted 16x20 paper you could do a layout in LR whereby you printed on 16x20, folded to 8x20, then trimmed to the desired length. Since the 2880 only goes to 13’ wide, the alternative might be to use roll paper @ 8.5” wide, layout, print, and trim as needed. Or chose not to be limited by the “unusual” “custom sized” output you are initially aiming for… Good luck! stan > On Jun 17, 2016, at 3:10 PM, Bulent Celasun <bulent.cela...@gmail.com> wrote: > > I have an Epson R2880 printer which I use rather infrequently. > I normally use it with proper inkjet photoprinter papers. > Nowadays I am thinking of printing a few photoalbums / photobooks > on custom-sized papers. > > The unusual size of the papers (about 84 cm in length and less than 20 > cm in width, to be folded after printing) necessitates use of > papers not designed for photoprinters. > > I wonder if > - there are paper options that may be more suitable for this project > (like a certain paper designed for watercolor painting) > - I can coat the paper with something for better print performance > - if there is a risk for the printer parts. > > Any ideas / experiences? > > Bulent > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > http://patoloji.gen.tr > http://celasun.wordpress.com/ > http://www.flickr.com/photos/bc_the_path/ > http://photo.net/photodb/user?user_id=2226822 > http://www.pentaxphotogallery.com/artists/bulentcelasun > > -- > PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List > PDML@pdml.net > http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net > to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow > the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
