Epson Stylus 1520 ... need some help

hey guys, we're having trouble on our epson 1520...we need to print a 6 foot banner on paper 16" wide...so dimensions are 16" by 72"...running on windows xp, printing from Illy CS1 or CS2, pick a flavor (we've got both)...right now we're trying from illy cs2

It's giving us a maximum page length of 44", but on our custom software we can get 72" out of it, thats another thing altogether

and according to epsons guide it should do up to 15 ft long

The question is...do the windows xp drivers suck so bad as to not allow 72 inches, are we screwed? If anyone's got any ideas, please let me know, I know the printer type is ancient, but its what we use no control over that from my end.

for reference the brochure...

Today I had leftovers. Chorizo and...
