Roll paper on Pixma Pro 100?

Can anyone tell me if it is possible to use roll paper with a Pixma Pro 100? Don't want to spend the $$$ just to find out it won't work. I did my due diligence and searched the Hog, but no joy.

It is strictly cut sheet and limited to 13 X 19 in the menu.
Red River tested it and found that using "custom" they could go to 12.95 X 26 inches.
Their evaluation here: http://www.redrivercatalog.com/infocenter/articles/canon-pro-100-review-introduction-first-look-getting-started.html

For others look here: http://kbsupport.cusa.canon.com/system/selfservice.controller?CONFIGURATION=1011&PARTITION_ID=1&secureFlag=false&TIMEZONE_OFFSET=&CMD=VIEW_ARTICLE&ARTICLE_ID=62075
Rear Tray - Maximum size: 12.95 x 26.61 inches (329.0 x 676.0 mm)

Basically, this means you can cut 26.6-inch lengths from a 13-inch wide roll of photo printing paper.

I have a Pixma Pro 100 and also have access to roll photo paper through work.
I have tried to cut 13x19 from a roll. It is really hard to get it flat, there is so much curl from a roll.
i have not been successful in getting it to feed.
Maybe you'll have better luck but I wouldn't spend much money on a roll unless you are sure you can get it flat.

If 13x19s are the goal, Canon's paper is selling for about $35 for 50 sheets now at B&H.

If panoramas are the goal, Red River sells 13x38 that comes flat. The 12 inch "tail" could be trimmed to a useful size.
