Re: [Digital BW] How do you print custom paper sizes on a 2100/2200?

2005-03-22 by Steve Kale

First of all Mac or PC?  QTR or Epson?  With a Mac and the Epson 2100
driver, the printer spits the dummy when you choose to use a custom paper
size.  Setting up a custom paper size is easy (settings - custom paper size
in page setup) and the numbers are logical - just enter the paper dimensions
and the margins you want.  All goes well until you send it to print and the
printer has a fit - rotates the image, chops it off and starts in the middle
of the page.  Epson is aware of it and simply hasn't bothered to do anything
about it.
