Marlin, there are printers that will do this. I have one that will print 24 inches by 80 feet. (that is not a typo) It uses roll paper for the long ones. This particular printer is no longer sold, but you might look on ebay or type "printers or plotters" into google and see what you come up with. > > > > Using FO 10.0, Does anyone know how to print charts to a wide paper roll > paper > > printer like the units found at Copy Max or Kinkos.

I believe that there is a printer program that can be downloaded from a Kinko site that will print to a file that can be saved to a disk and then taken to Kinko's for printing.
