Printing on Custom-size Paper
This section includes the following:
• Printing on Custom-size Paper Using the PostScript Driver on page 86
• Printing on Custom-size Paper Using the PCL Driver on page 86
Note: When setting the paper size in the printer driver and control panel, be sure to specify the
same size as the actual paper used. Setting the wrong size for printing can cause a printer error.
