The epson P9000 driver (at least on the mac) has a cut to exact size option when printing from a roll. Where can I find that on windows inside of QImage? I was able to get 34" high prints of a 44" roll which saved me the step of trimming after the print came out. I do believe this option wasted a little more paper but I don't mind that given how convenient it is.

You would have to click "Properties" on the Printers and Settings tab and check in the driver.  I don't have the P9000 but if the setting is there, it's probably under "Roll Paper Option" on the main tab in the driver.

I don't actually see it in that usual area which makes me wonder if epson removed it or not.

Is there an option for QImage to print page cut lines? My image is sitting in a 24x31 space.

Qimage can place cut marks around each print so if you only have one print on each page, you can place cut marks on where to cut each print.  You can add white borders if you want some space around the prints.  See the "Cut Marks" option on Qimage's main UI.

Mike

I have used the cut marks option, in my case the width of my image is 40x30 on a 44" roll so I'm not sure what will happen when I add a border to the image to be 44"x34" ( I want 2" top left and right, and 2.25" at the bottom). I assume the cut lines defining the 44" will get cut off (which is what I want) and only the horizontal ones will remain. If that's the case this will be a good workaround, if not maybe adding a cut mark at page start/end would be a good option in the future.
