I don't see why not. This doesen't appear to be a "production" machine. The advantage for roll paper, besides cost, is you can print unattended. I like the idea of not having to switch carts to print gloss/semi gloss material. The downside to cutting up rolls is you have to flatten the paper prior to printing and the time spent cutting down the roll. Time being money, I think I'd just buy the precut paper.
