Printing 13" x 38" paper using manual feed slot on PRO 300 printer

Mike-PDX — Mon, 24 Oct 2022 19:00:00 GMT

I've had this printer for 1.5 years and have been successfully printing up to 13 x 19 prints using Lightroom 11 and 12 on a Windows 10 workstation. I now have a need to print panorama images (12" x 36") on 13 x 38 Red River paper.

I believe I am correctly setting the paper into the manual feed slot, and I am able to print 13 x 19 through the manual feeder, but when I attempt to feed 13 x 38 paper, the printer tries to print, then ejects the entire page and gives an error - "Support Code 1300 Paper is jammed." There is clearly no paper jam. I used the custom paper size option on the printer, and have set up the page size appropriately in Lightroom and Win10. What am I doing wrong?

Does your paper type fall into these requirements?

Canon Knowledge Base - Supported Media Types - PRO-300

My Pro-100 has this setting. Does your printer have the same option?

Thanks for your response. In answer to your first question, the Red River paper seems to fit well within Canon's requirements: satin finish, measures exactly 13" x 38", weight 68 lb, thickness 10.4mil, and the edges are true and square.

As for your second question, it appears than the PRO 300 menu is a bit different. Here is a screen shot of my settings. And maybe I got it wrong when I assumed that a check means disable the width mismatch detection.
