OK. I don't use PS. I do use LR, (on a Mac) so I don't know if the print dialog is the same, but I'll try ...

This is, as I said, LRCC/Mac combo. It may or may not be similar to PS:

Open 'Page Setup', select Pro10, Paper Size A3+ (borderless or border but NOT "Art Paper Margin 30"), check OK

Open 'Print Settings', go to 'Layout'>Quality and Media>Photo Papers>Matte Photo Paper. DO NOT USE THE FINE ART dialog, or you'll repeat what has already occurred. Save

Open 'Printer', verify 'Quality and Media' has Matte Photo Paper, then Print.


IF YOU SELECT "ART PAPER MARGIN 30" YOU WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO PRINT "FULL OUT"!
--------------------

Using the dialog you show in screen shots, in the second shot, you *probably* you can get to the "...prevent abrasion" under "maintenance" following a similar dialog previously mentioned.

And in shot 3, get out of 'Art Paper, margin 30'.

IF you get to the 'prevent abrasion' screen, you *may* be able to use the "rear", or upper, tray. In my experience, anytime you check "art paper...", you *have* to use the manual tray.

Again, though, this is YMMV, because even though I use LRCC, I do not use PS, and do not know their print workflow.

Anyone else out there?

True, but it works!

The manual doesn't tell you how to get the 14x24 prints, either, but you can.

But, to use the thick stuff, open up the printer's menu, go to 'Settings>'Utility'>'Open Printer Utility'>'Custom Settings'>and check everything except Align Print Heads. The 'Prevent Paper Abrasion' button gives a smidgen more clearance - and I have run "Canvas" type papers through just to see if it works. In fact, I don't think I've ever turned the '…Abrasion' button off, even when I print plain, thin, crafting (i.e. origami) type papers.

By the way, do NOT use the not-too-flexible poster board or 2-ply mat board, you will be greatly disappointed.

And DO try art (as in acrylic/watercolor/oil, etc painting) papers. You'll get some "old-tyme" style results, or you can bump up the contrast and/or saturation. Don't be afraid to experiment.

(Another little trick: To help prevent paper curling on the edges, store the boxes 'upside down'. The paper goes through the unit soooo much easier when it's flat!)

Some Canon and Epson dye inks are estimated to last 100 years. They generally come with six-color (or more) photo printers. Dye inks produce brighter images than pigment inks, but don't last as long.

Pigment inks last from 100 to 400 years under the same conditions as dye inks. They come on the most expensive photo printers.

Dye ink printers are generally more reliable (fewer head clogs).

Conventional wet-process photo papers are good for 20 to 50 years under the same conditions... Some lab prints won't make it five years if they were processed without proper washing and stabilization treatment.

Do not use common office printers to make photos you want to keep longer than five years. Off-brands tend to be short-lived when displayed in room light or (worse) sunlight. We once had an HP home printer. My wife bought the cheapest off-brand inks she could find from a strip mall refiller. A print she tacked to her office bulletin board under daylight fluorescent tubes lasted about three months before fading. The same image, printed on an Epson with Claria ink, looked new after a year.
