Answer

The maximum printable length for roll media is 19.7 yd (18 m).

The maximum printable length for sheet media are:
Top Paper Feed Slot   - 63.0 in. (1,600 mm)
Front Paper Feed Slot - 36.0 in. (914 mm)

 

Print Area
A margin required by the printer is added with respect to the size of paper loaded in the printer. Except in borderless printing, the actual printing area corresponds to the paper size minus the space for this margin.
