Printing Basics 143
• Using the Windows Print Driver
On the Windows print driver, set the custom size in the Custom Paper Size dialog box. There are two
ways to access the Custom Paper Size dialog box. This section explains the procedures using
Windows 7 as an example.
An administrator’s password only allows users with administrator rights to change the settings. Users
without the rights of administrator can only view the contents.
