How can I set up the paper size when I want to schedule a print task? When I try and print some existing drawings I go to the pull downs choose my printer and try and select the paper size but the selections seem to be the same regardless of what printer I choose and the selections I need are not present. I.e. I want to print 11" X 17" this is not available, letter, envelope sizes you name it is there but not 11x17. Same thing with our Xerox wide format plotter, no b size, c size d size etc.

What gives?

Are the correct selections present when printing from other programs (including SW)?

Yes they are, it looks like you have to set your default printer to what you want to print your drawings to before hand. That did work but why the pull down does not work or tell you to set you default printer to the dwg spec I don't know.
