In this list, I don't know. On the market, the Roland d'Vinci 
has similar specs, from 50" up to 72" sizes and I estimate 2x 
the price while printing slower. So there is a market in art 
printing, signs and some 8x10 photographers will at last be 
able to show that size matters:-)

Canvas is available at 60" right now. Innova paper too. Canon 
plans to have 50 papers available at the end of the year and 
is at 30 now. Hahnemuhle among it.

Printer width doesn't translate to big prints only. It speeds 
printing up and could make smaller prints on a wider roll 
cheaper than on a smaller roll just because it nests better.
