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.
