Hi,

i'd like to print on a paper roll instead of cut paper sheets.
>From what i could find in the forum archives, postscript doesn't
support endless paper but only pages. That's not a problem for me,
i'd still like to print it out pagewise, just that instead of feeding
out a sheet of paper it would continue to print every page right
behind the last one on the roll, without space between the pages (or maybe up to 1 inch space).
Essentially, i believe that just comes down to suppressing the page ejection.

is there a way to do that with cups?
if so, how?
does that depend on the printer?
if so, what laser or inkjet printers are known to be capable of doing this?
