Creating User Defined Paper Sizes

You can create up to 10 custom paper sizes (only one in
Windows 3.1) and add them to the

Paper Size

list using the

User Defined

option. This is useful if you’re printing a custom

size document, such as a banner. You can select any width from
3.94 to 9.5 inches, and any height (length) from 3.94 to
44 inches.

Follow these steps to create a custom paper size with the

User

Defined

option:

1. Follow the steps on page 3-11 to access the printer software

and select the

Paper

tab.

2. Click the

Paper Size

list and scroll to the bottom of it

using the arrows or scroll bar.

3. Click the

User Defined

option. You see one of the

following dialog boxes:

4. Windows 95 or Windows NT

Type a name (up to 24 characters) for your custom paper
size in the

Paper Size Name

field. Then select a

Paper

Width

and

Paper Height

for the paper. To use centimeters

instead of inches, click the

0.01cm

option. When you’re

finished, click

Save

. The paper size name appears in the

Paper Size

list in the dialog box. Add more sizes if you

want, and click

OK

when you’re done.

Note:
In Windows 95 and
Windows NT, the Paper
Width and Paper Height
units are in hundredth of
an inch (or centimeter)
increments. For example,
850 equals 8.50 inches.

Windows 95/Windows NT

Windows 3.1
