Hello

I have a problem printing bigger than paper size A2.

From A4-A2 I use the “SetupCustomPrinter”

SetupCustomPrinter(TmpPrinter,1,DMPAPER_A2)

SetupCustomPrinter(TmpPrinter,1,DMPAPER_A3)

SetupCustomPrinter(TmpPrinter,1,DMPAPER_A4)

And all work.

But if I try to print A1

SetupCustomPrinter(TmpPrinterNavn,1,DMPAPER_USER)

SetupCustomPrinter(TmpPrinterNavn,2,8410)

SetupCustomPrinter(TmpPrinterNavn,3,5940)

SetupCustomPrinter(TmpPrinterNavn,1,DMPAPER_USER) give an error, and the output is A4.

Dos anyone have an example, printing >A2 or custom papersize.

Hi Brian!

What's the returning value of SetCustomPrinter?
If it's 1 then the function works correct - 0 means error.
Did you see already that your printer creates A1-output?

Cheers and welcome here,
Ingo

Hi

If I choose A1 at the printer in Windows printer setup. And choose to print the full-scale printing it out, it comes out in A1. But I want to print it out from the program.

hi

If I call file:///C:%5CDOCUME%7E1%5Cbk%5CLOKALE%7E1%5CTemp%5Cmsohtml1%5C01%5Cclip_filelist.xml - SetupCustomPrinter(TmpPrinterNavn,1,DMPAPER_USER) it return 0

I had so setup file:///C:%5CDOCUME%7E1%5Cbk%5CLOKALE%7E1%5CTemp%5Cmsohtml1%5C01%5Cclip_filelist.xml - DMPAPER_USER to use lenght and height
