Panorama Paper

2001-08-03 by mwesley250@earthlink.net

Earlier the issue of panorama paper was brought up by John Brownlow 
(Post #46) and I don't want the thread to die out without an answer. 
While there are art paper options for the big printers in rolls there 
is a need for Panorama sized paper for the desktop models.

In checking around the web I have not turned up anything at all, 
nothing.

Does anyone know of any quality paper that is being sold in say a 
13X26 or longer size? Or better yet 13" or 17" rolls? (Epson makes 
the Photo Paper in 4" and 13"(?) rolls I believe but this is not my 
idea of quality paper. Jump in if you disagree.)

If not, is there anyway to special order from any of the major 
manufacturers/suppliers like Crane, Hahnemule, Arches, Legion, 
Brightcube, Lyson, Hawk Mountain, Lumijet, etc..?

This is a tough one because while there are roll adapters for the 
desktop printers they definitely were not designed for a nice 310 gsm 
paper so there is no obvious motivation to supply rolls!

But if there were 13" and 17" wide rolls of art paper you could just 
cut off the length you wanted and hand feed it. That way you could do 
1:2, 1:3, 1:4, or 1:?  panorama's as desired.

Any ideas on how to get something like this?

It would be really great to have a 12" by 36" B&W print matted and 
framed up on the wall!!!
