Default I need an odd-sized paper setting.

I have 4 printers connected to the computer:

HP3100
Fujitsu DL5800
Epson FX-100
OKI 5100n

I cannot find where odd paper sizes can be entered into the list of sizes in
each of the printer properties.

Each printer has a fixed list of sizes.

Please help, Frank

Default RE: I need an odd-sized paper setting.

Check Printing Preferences>Advanced. I have HP, Canon and Panasonic
printers attached. The HP under Printing Preferences>Paper/Quality>Size is:
has a Custom settings button. The Canon has Select Custom. Check yours for
creating Templates for custom settings. Some printers will let you create
your own templates and others will let you do it within their software. I am
not familiar with Oki, but with HP you should be able to do it.

Thanks but I figured it out. You have to go to
Printers&Faxes/File/ServerProperties and follow the instructions.

Sometimes after a crash you have to delete the old settings and recreate
them there.
