Paper Size "Bounding Box Error"
Posted: Sat Sep 19, 2009 12:30 am
I created a 17x72 in paper size in PrintFab tool box. I attempted to print this size on my Epson Stylus 3800 from PhotoShop CS4. I got a "bad bounding box" error message, and about 36 in of paper fed through the printer before printing began. I know that the Epson printer driver is limited to a paper length of 37.4 in. But other rips, i.e. Color Burst, ImagePrint, and Quadtone will all print much longer on this printer. To begin with what is a "bounding box error?

PS
The actual meassge was "bad%%bounding box message seen" . 27 inches of blank paper fed quickly and printing began about 27 inches into the print. The CUPS error log shows nothing at the beginning of the printing. The problem seems to be that although landscape option has been chosen, the print orientation is portrait! It doesn't seem to matter whether the page orientation is chosen in the PhotoShop print dialog or in the page setup dialog.
