QTR-Quadtone RIP

Is there a maximum length for landscape image in QTR? 
Using PSCS2 on my Mac{4GbRAM} I created a document 13'wide X 60" long and printed it 
with QTR & R2400. I want to go longer. It seems as if my limitation would be the 1Gig max 
file size in PS. Does anyone have experience in this area? Advice to offer?
A Good New Year to All!
Thanks,
Julian Kaiser

Hi Julian, Did you ever get an answer to this question? I might like 
to print that long as well although I assumed the printer would be the 
limiting factor. I had read that the R2400 will only go 44 inches long.

Thanks.

I don't know about CS2, but previous versions of Photoshop have a limit of 10,000-some-odd pixels in either dimension.  Could that be your problem?

Kyle,
Roy H. responded to my e-mail, informing me that max width for QTR on the R2400 is 
128 inches. Upon attempting to print my 120" long document I discovered that all print 
commands(except page setup) in the pulldown menu were 'grayed' out-unavailable! After 
some research I discovered a reference,(Martin Evening, CS2 for Photogs) to a PS/CS 
"normal pixel limit" of 30,000 X 30,000. My long document was 43,xxx as it was 360dpi. I 
reset the dpi to 240 to get under the pixel limit and was able to print my document, 
13"x10ft long!
Now the question becomes, how do I frame this puppy?-Ha!
