I am trying to print to a custom page size of 36" x 96" however it errors-out when trying to print to the device.

The driver reports an acceptable width and height range to be 1.00" to 200.00" inches so I am expecting a 36.00" x 96.00" sheet size to work.

I have set the width as 96" and the height as 36".

I can however successfully print if the width doesn't exceed 82.85" for a height of 36".

If I reduce the 36" height dimension to say 31" then I can successfully print to a 96" width dimension.

It seems as though there is either a bug or restriction of the area (width X height) size of the sheet one can print to.

Can others repeat this? Should I be able to do this?
