Printers purchase all types of stock in roll form. These rolls feed high 
speed color copier type machines, that take  layout from computer programs 
such as Photoshop.
The problem is that the rolls weigh about 34kg. thats around 75lb. and 
depending on the paper weight can be 450m about 1500ft. long in the 30mm.  
12.25 inch width.
Quite a bit of paper and a lot of money to tie up. However at the end of a 
print job, if there is less than 10% of a roll left it is scrapped, because 
of the time required to change rolls once the job has started.
I purchase these ends at a very reasonable rate from a local printer and cut 
them to any length I need.
The printer also laminates my panos for a reasonable fee and his roll film 
laminator has no length restrictions.
