Assuming that he didn't go back and reedit his posts...
He Did post the name of a printer that works with Pages...

Err... nope. Admittedly it is difficult with some printers (e.g.,
Brother
HL-2070N lasers) but it is fairly simple with others (e.g., Brother
MFC-440CN). The problem lies with the printer, not Pages.

Can anyone else confirm this...
Because i think IT HAS BEEN established that Pages DOESN'T HAVE this
native feature...!!!
When you are using a Brother MEC-440CN
Are you in fact starting with a large poster sized document,
Such as a 2 by 3 foot Pictorial Image ( Not just Text )
And the Resulting product is a series of single sheets,
each of which has a section of the Original Image...

Can anyone else confirm this...

That would be VERY INTERESTING,
That A Particular Printer can somehow Transcend a built in limitation
of a program to do this...???
It would mean, i would think; that the Brother MFC-440CN is somehow
tricking the Pages application to send it the whole document, then
reformatting it in the printer...!!!

How much does a printer like that cost?
