Nobody? Well its the first I’ve heard of it but its possible someone else has produced the same set of parameters you have and can’t get it to work. But its certainly a tiny, unheard group considering how many such printers are out there, how many people post to appropriate lists on the topic and so on.
FWIW, a fellow who knows more about printing than most, Mac Holbert who started Nash Editions in the 90’s had this to say about your issue:
> This guy has created an invalid page size. I see this all the time and not only with the 9900. If you set your margins in your custom setup incorrectly and the printer senses you're trying to print an image larger than the available space it prints a smaller version. This happened to Steve Gorman a couple of weeks ago.Check margins and insure that the combined image size and margins do not exceed the paper height and width.

Try that. Might work. Or see if you can find anyone else who shares your troubles and check notes (or better, check with users who have no such issues and ask them why). I know lots and lots of users can and do print 44” wide.

Who exactly did you talk to (you can email off list). I can take that directly to the product manager, but so far, the people inside Epson I’ve communicated with have said that this is not a known problem, and that there may very well be some lower level tech support people who are telling you incorrect information.
