    Ok on two different office printers the printable area for one is 343.18 x 201.61 mm
    other 343.64 x 203.73 mm

    This creates a problem since I am making a standard title block for us to use, and setting up all our CAD standards.When print jobs are sent out to the computer on the smaller printable area the top is getting cut off. One printer is colour one is BW which is why we need two. How do I remedy this? (edit-by remedy what I want to do is make the two printable areas identical. Is there a way to do this or do I need to use the minimum dimensions as the controlling dimensions?)

  2. Hi Ryan C,

    You can manipulate the PC3 files to offer the same size sheet in both
    printers, by creating custom paper sizes.

    Hope this helps,

    Do I change the paper size in my control panel or in LDD somewhere?
