I am having three problems with print sizing and grid view in Lightroom 2.1 and asking for advice. (I am using Windows XP)
I just set up a new HP z31'' Designjet 24 inch roll feed printer. 24" roll photo paper loaded right.
Problem 1: I am attempting to print two 8x12 photos side-by-side across the 24" sheet (for optimal paper usage) and Lightroom will not let me put them side by side in the printing layout grid (for optimal paper usage).
I have checked Page Setup and Print Setup menus, and gone to my HP print manager screen which all see "roll paper". But I don't see the print manager screen allowing me to choose 24inch specifically, so I created a 8"x24 custom paper size. Still, every time I print two or more 8x photos, it is only printing one photo at a time, not two side by side, and Lightroom wants to use 8.6x11 paper.
Also, I created a 8x12 custom print size in the Lightroom print-package size area, but when I select that size, Lightroom keeps changing the size to 1'.61x7.64 automatically, and the maximum I can manually adjust it to is that size. I cannot seem to control Lightroom and get what I want in layout and photo size. It tells me that I cannot use paper larger than 11".
Can one of you wide format print pros give me some help? Thanks.
