printing on cardstock-wide format printer

This may be a stupid question but how do you print on a 12 x 12 cardstock if you don't have a wide printer? Someone told me there was a way...please help. Do you know of any printers that are the wide format that doesn't cost an arm and a leg?

As far as I know, you can only print on 12 x 12 paper on a wide format printer. Epson has 2 that are for consumers: Epson Photo 2200 for about $699.00 and Epson Stylus Photo 1280 for $399.00. I have the 2200 and I really like it. I do not know much about the 1280. One thing I really like abut the 2200 is that each ink color is a different cartridge so when you run out of a color you do not have to purchase an expensive cartridge that has all of the colors in it. I am not sure about the 1280. Are you wanting to print on 12 x 12 paper to print an entire LO or are you wanting to print on 12 x 12 for a title. If you are wanting to print for a title only that goes across the entire 12 x 12 page, you can use the 8.5 x 11 and print on the ll side. Even though it is 1 inch short, it still can work ok. I hope this helps you.

You can change your printer setting to legal size paper (8 1/2 x 14) and print landscape and print across a 12" piece of paper (trimmed down to not more than 8 1/2" wide).

Thanks! I never thought of that. That is a great way to print the 12" side.
