Defining Custom Paper Sizes

Before printing, set the custom size on the print driver.
Note:
When setting the paper size on the print driver and the printer console, be sure to specify the same
size as the actual paper used. Setting the wrong size for printing can cause printer failure. This is
especially true if you configure a bigger size when using a narrow width paper.

On the PCL print driver, set the custom size in the Custom Paper Size dialog box. This section explains
the procedure using Windows XP as an example.
For Windows 2000 or later, an administrator's password only allows users with administrator rights to
change the settings. Users without the rights of administrator can only view the contents.
