World's largest printer test page!


So one of our science departments has a large-format Canon poster printer that they use for printing giant posters for science presentations. The first time I laid eyes on it, my first thought was "it would be awesome to print a Windows test page on that". Of course, it isn't that simple - a normal Windows test page won't scale, so you would just get a normal test page on a giant piece of glossy paper.

I mentioned it to bsom, and he had to test the printer anyway, since he had just replaced a number of parts on the printer. So he found a PDF of an Acrobat Pro test page and printed it on the printer. It now hangs on the door to my office, and barely fits.
