Canon has released a firmware-update in October. Two major changes that are interesting for me:
Maximum paper length for printing is now 1200mm. This means that smaller panoramas can now also be printed in larger format (432mm x 1200mm). However, the handling of roll paper is only an emergency solution here. Since the printer does not know a roll, the rest of the paper is pushed out at the end of the print (even if it is a 5 meter roll). The paper has to be cut to the right length beforehand, but is not very easy to handle. But, at least, it works.
The second interesting innovation is a media information file for Baryta papers. Here a test is still pending.
