I used to be able to get legal size photo paper from Kodak, which I use
for printing 8 x 12 prints, but Kodak doesn't make it anymore. Can't find
it anywhere else either. Buying larger paper and cutting it down is a huge
waste of money, not to mention a paper cutter large enough to cut down
ledger to legal. I've got one package of legal size photo paper left.
After that, no more 8 x 12 prints for me unless I can find another source of
legal size paper. Anyone know of any companies that make legal size photo
paper? (And no, I hate 8 x 10 except for portraits).

You could investigate roll paper. Many surfaces are available in 8 1/2
width. You may be able to get a roll holder for your printer or just cut
into sheets, no waste.

I've never seen it. However, Epson makes 8.5" roll paper, which gives
you the ability to print 8.5" x anything up to 44" prints fairly
easily. Or you can cut it down manually on a small paper cutter.

I dont know if you've had any luck finding this, but if not, check out eBay. The user named bardpaper offers this for 15 bucks per 50 sheet pack, plus 9.95 shipping on up to 5 packs. I just ordered one tonight, so I can't tell you exactly how good it is, but it solves your problem for the size paper you were needing with a photo finish. I hope this helps.
