Digital BW, The Print

I recently purchased an Epson 3800 and would like to be able to print 
full-frame 35mm format images as large as possible (16 x 24 with a 
border on each side).  All I can find is 17 x 22 inch paper.  Surely 
I'm not the only person with this issue.  What is the rationale for 
the 22-inch length anyway?  Does anyone know of a source for 17 x 25 
inch paper?

try google - quick search turned up

Hawk Mountain has four different papers available in 17x25 cut sheets.

Larry,

You might try buying a roll of your favorite paper and cut it to the 25 
inch length (or 27 to aid handling). I bought 17 inch rolls for my R1800 
(13 inch wide) and cut it to 13 inch lengths. A week or so in a sleeve 
under a 13 x 19 box and it flattened out to be quite usable. I didn't 
want to waste paper as I shoot square or 4x5 and had little use at the 
time for the extra length of the 13 x 19.
