Seconded. Canon printers have limits set in gutenprint, I can find 34 inches for the BJC-5500, most other large-format printers have limits of 23 inches set. So I am guessing you are not using a Canon printer. Certainly in gutenprint the limits could be changed. Please post to the gimp-print mailing list with specifics.
