>>You could use escape sequences with generic driver. ie: ??? chr(27)+"E" would directly send escape+"E" to printer port (this requires port not captured and local). In NT too AFAIK generic printer setting supports personalized size though.

Not captured, I mean in details window you should see printer is connected directly to lpt1: port with no \\server\queue style remote connection. I don't think you'd be able to see page size in control p. or page setup if using esc sequences (they change it on the fly sending control commands directly to printer). Last I think syntax is wrong there :
??? CHR(27)+'C'+chr(43)
