Hi,
Turboprint works beautifully with my Epson r265. But what is the reason for the maximum paper height of 44 inches in the custom paper size? I have a roll of inkjet paper from which I can cut pieces of any length - I'd like to make some panoramic prints that are 8 inches wide and about 60 inches long. I know the printer will do this no problem, as I've done it before with other printer drivers.
Any way round maximum paper height on Epson r265
The current limit is 44 inches (which is the limit specified by Epson). I don't know if there is a limit in the printer firmware. If you are interested, you could try the following:
To increase the max. custom page size edit the printer definition file
/usr/share/turboprint/printers/Epson_StylusPhotoRX560.tpp (this is the compatible driver used also for the R265).

Size=8500,44000 ;width x height in 1/1000 inches
Margins=120,120,120,120,540
Param=99,0,0,0
In the line "Size", change 44000 to the desired length, e.g. 60000.
