Defining Custom Paper Sizes

To print custom paper sizes, define the custom width and length of the paper in the print driver software
and on the printer control panel. When setting the paper size, ensure that you specify the same size as
the paper in the tray. Setting the wrong size can cause a printer error. Print driver settings override
control panel settings when you print using the print driver software on your computer.
Creating and Saving Custom Paper Sizes in the Print Driver
You can print custom-size paper from any paper tray. Custom-size paper settings are saved in the print
driver and are available for you to select in all your applications.
