Problem printing long picture from corel 12 1

[swifnik]

I have been printing large files (36 inches long) to an Epson 1200 with no problems. I tried printing a 60" photo but it stopped printing at about 48" and pushed the rest of the paper out of the printer. Is there anyone who has an answer for this one.

A bigger print is going to need more virtual disk space -- both within CorelDraw and in the print queue.

So, you could try allocating more VM (somewhere in control panel : system : advanced : performance. Provided that you have free drive space to allocate, that is. And close any other programs that might be using a lot of VM (task manager will tell you if you turn on VM size as a viewable column).

Or you could try to create less data when you print, either by setting bitmap downsampling in Corel's Print : Misc tab or, if the epson is a postscript printer, try using at least Level 2 in Print : Postscript and jpeg compression of about 30 or more.
