Roll Paper for Epson 1520

[Jim at abms]

I have had an Epson 1520 color printer for some time and have added a
roll adapter but can only find the Epson 16.5" roll paper. I am trying
to get 8.5" and or 11" roll paper. I am not using it for photos just
posters, banners and great wide spread sheets. Any one with a
suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

Thanx

I purchase rolls that are 24 or 36 inch wide and cut them with a hand saw to
the width I want. The edges may need a little trimming after you print, but
it is the only way to get 14 inch wide (for 12 wide prints) or smaller roll
paper. You would think that it would catch on, now that there are several
printers in Epson's line that will print on roll paper. I've seen 4 inch and
5 inch, but then it jumps up to 17inch (16.5) wide. Really a shame too.
