Windows 10: Why Metric Print Pages

My printers suddenly now only show printer pages in metric cm and there is no way to change that back to US paper sizes. I am in Canada and all was good until recent Win10x64 updates. How can this be fixed? Thanks

Printing web pages in Windows 10

Hi,

Thank you for the update and apologies for late response.

• Are you able to print via Internet Explorer 11?
• What kind of contents and extensions do you want to print?

I suggest you to perform the below troubleshooting steps and check if it helps:

Method 1: I suggest you to follow the steps below to print documents in the Windows 10 Edge browser and check if it helps:

• 
  Once the document is open in Edge, press
  Ctrl+P or More actions button at the top last end of the browser.
  
• 
  Click Print as PDF button.
  
• 
  Check if the document prints as expected.
  

If the above steps did not work, try the next methods.

Method 2: Set your printer as default.

• 
  Press Windows key and type
  Control Panel.
  
• 
  Click on view by and select large icons.
  
• 
  Open Devices and printers.
  
• 
  Right click on your printer and select set a default printer.
  

Check if it helps. Please keep us posted on the issue. We will be happy to assist you accordingly.

 

Print Setup- can it be changed to Metric?

Is there a way to change the Windows 10's 'Print Setup' dialog box to accept Metric instead of Imperial? I mainly print images and have to do so at specific sizes, and it's a giant pain to have to convert every time. I have the system set to Metric, but
just like it was with XP, the 'Print Setup' box seems to only have inches available regardless. I can't find any option to change it anywhere- am I just SOL even with Windows 10?

Thanks.
