Printing a banner longer than 22"

[Deborah]

Word seems to be set so that you can not have a continous printing document
longer than 22". This is driving me nuts as I have a sheet I need to print
that is 33" long. I have the continous paper, but it won't let me change the
formatting. Any clues?

Hi Deborah,

Word is definitely limited to 21" (or was it 22"? not sure).
I've never had a printer that allowed to print on continuous paper, but
maybe you can create the doc at say half the size (width) and then use the
"zoom" in the Print dialog to blow it up to twice the width (and length)?

Regards,
Klaus

You cannot do it with Word. I believe that you can with Publisher.

Most printers that has continuous paper capabilities limits it to 44".

Hi Deborah,

In addition to MS Office Publisher, you should also be able to create the banner in MS Office Excel, if you do not have Publisher,
provided that your printer has the capability to print banners.
