Getting to 200mm front to back seems to work.
Side to side is more difficult. If any element of the print - including the skirt or brim - comes close to the left side, print movements can touch the left side which drops the probe down with disastrous results.
So:
If only one dimension is near 200mm, rotate the print on the bed so the long dimension is front to back, NOT side to side
TURN OFF THE SKIRT & BRIM!! Even if the print is only 195mm wide, the skirt or brim can push it to 200mm, which will drop the probe.
Turning off the brim (in fact any Slic3r changes) is HARD. Make the change, save the change, close Soliprint, reload the new setting...usually that's enough. Quite often Soliprint/Slic3r still picks up previous settings...be ready to stop the print!
If you are close to the left edge, within 5 mm, you MUST stay with the print at all times. If you leave for a few minutes, the probe could catch and drop - and get ripped off by the side of the bed. Be ready at all times to pull the plug, no other way is fast enough.
Keep your print 195 wide or less, unless with a series of closely watched test prints you can prove the probe won't drop.
With a print 195mm wide or wider, don't let Soliprint center it. Move the print manually all the way to the right to avoid the left edge.
You can try carefully bending the right and back limit switch metal tabs to fine tune the 200x200 print space a little right and back. Do some simple test prints to verify the print head doesn't scrape the sides. BUT all warranties void, damage is your problem etc etc
Or...has anyone got a 200mm wide print?
Master class: 8" is actually 203mm...
