    Hi all!

    Is there any way of easily removing the sliders that the media clamps clip onto to be able to slide the rollers over a tad to increase the print width.

    I have had a request for a print of 745mm x 400mm and was just wondering….

    (yes, I know, I should have bought a bigger machine…)

    Turn the print through 90 digs

    don’t think I would try that just turn the print around (stating the obvious)
    if cost cutting on material you just have to lump it that is what it costs to do that job.
    I know I have a wider machine but keep 610 800 1220 and 1370 material suitable for printing so I get the best use.

    I cheat a little with some church posters I do that are 760mm high, as long as the print is not edge to edge I just make sure that there is no print closer than 25mm to the edges, make sure your tracking is straight and print away.
