Print on roll paper?

poppopopporatio · ‎12-22-2019

is there any way to have my HP Deskjet 3520 print on roll paper?

Currently after the first print it takes out the whole roll and then tries to take the "next" sheet, while I would like to set it in continuous printing on the roll.

No, it can't be done.

Really? Nobody thought of such a simple driver modification?

Just deactivate the ejection of the sheet and the feed of a new one.

I'm surprised.

When developing printers, engineers must consider what will be easy and workable for the "average" user. Most users are not going to be happy manually cutting their image from a roll. HP makes printers designed to print on rolls which incorporate features like larger ink tanks to reduce the cost and paper feed systems designed to prevent image skew over longer print media. People will always DIY products but don't expect a manufacturer to do this when they make a line of printers that are designed for this purpose. Just my 2 cents.
