Hi John,

I've done at least 30" on a 7500 and 7600 without trouble.  
A couple of things to look at:
Immediately after a problem print, run the Print-Gimp-Errorlog script
(you'll find it in the CurveDesign folder of the download).  It'll show
any messages logged by the print system.

If your picture is a horizontal and you are using landscape mode for
printing, try rotating the picture in Photoshop and printing portrait
mode.  Landscape requires a lot of extra memory and processing
to rotate the image -- maybe that's a problem.
