Some Xerox DocuColor printers had a routine which allowed large images to be printed on multiple sheets of paper that could then be spliced together to make images larger than 12"x18" (the largest most Xerox machines can print). This might be a useful thing for people trying to print backdrops or large structures. Come to think of it, it might come in handy printing out some of the larger drawings from the new MR DVD.

The Serif PagePlus program will do this with any printer. I have used this for station walls and backgrounds. There is a bit of overlap from one page to the next, this gives you the opportunity to make the cut in the least obtrusive place.

An architect’s office will have a wide format printer that uses rolls of paper and can make any size you like. These are ink jet type printers, and you can easily use $30 to $50 worth of ink for one print.
