Windows 10: Scanner Twain driver for Windows 11 - or how to make Windows 11 allow custom sized paper in...

I'm running Windows 11. I have a Fujitsu Fi-5530C document scanner.I want to scan some wiring diagrams that are longer than A3. Paper size is around 297mm by 479mm.Despite setting the custom paper to 479mm long, Windows is only letting the scanner scan to 420mm long.I went into Windows settings, and changed the standard paper from A3 to Tabloid, which is 430mm. So now I can scan to 430mm long whilst the scanner software NAPS2 is set to 479mm.Whilst Windows sees the scanner, I'm convinced that it's not fully set up. The Fujitsu Fi-5530C is from around 2005 perhaps, and so program software is

Microsoft Print to PDF - custom paper sizes possible?

Hi,

We suggest that you try to set the paper size of the exact document first. You can create a custom page size before you proceed with
Microsoft Print to PDF, it should auto-detect the paper size of the document.

To set the paper size in Microsoft Office:

• Click on the Page Layout/Page Design tab.
• Click on Size, and then in the options available, click on
  More Paper Sizes...
• Click on the drop-down arrow and scroll down to the last option which is
  Custom size. You will be able to customize your preferred paper size.
• Once done, click on OK, and then proceed with Microsoft Print to PDF.

Let us know how it goes.

 

Custom Paper Size

I am not able to print 24" x 36" to from my HP windows 10 laptop to my wide format printer. The printer has the capability and the correct paper size installed. I created a custom paper form to that size. But the custom size does not show up as an option
when I go to print. I used to be able print that size just fine but all of a sudden it stopped allowing me to. Any help is much appreciated.

 

Custom-Sized Form Created in Printer Driver Properties Not Displaying as a Selectable Paper Size in Excel (Office 365)

Hi,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

While Word offers the flexibility to create custom paper size through Page setup menu, Excel doesn't offer this flexibility to create through Excel easily. You will have to create the custom size in a particular printer (if
that printer supports custom size) and while printing through Excel, you will have to select this custom size. Sometimes you will not be able to choose the custom size as page sizes available are defined by the printer driver. Please let us know the make and
model number of your printer.



Also, make sure that you have the latest drivers. Now if you printer drivers support the size you are trying to print, please follow the steps mentioned below:

1. Open a spread sheet that you are trying to print and press Ctrl key + P (to print).
   
2. Then Click on Page Setup.
   
3. Then click on Sheet and then on Options.
   
4. Then click on Advanced and check if you are able to choose the size under Paper/Output.

Hope this Helps.
