How to print custom size envelope

I'm having trouble printing 3 5/8x 6 1/2" envelopes. The templates in Pages are for business size envelopes. I made a custom template, but I get an error message
<The specified custom paper size is not supported in the selected tray.>
I only have one tray...? Is this a printer issue? It's a HP Deskjet.
Thanks!

Check you printers instruction on which sizes it can take. Pages doesn't have any specific document or envelope sizes. It uses the one your printer is providing, you have installed on the computer.

Printing custom size envelopes under Yosemite

Upgraded to Yosemite on MacPro. HP8600 no longer prints custom size envelopes. Seems like printer keeps expecting 11 inch long paper size even though the envelope is specified as 5.750 height. Never had a problem before OS upgrade. Need to print envelopes for Christmas cards.

Hey @25172 ,
Thank you for taking the time to post on the HP Forums today! Hope you enjoy the experience.
I understand you are having issues when trying to print an envelope but the printer is trying to print on an 11' piece of paper. You used to be able to change the settings and it would work, now it simply isn't following your instruction.
Have you done all the apple updates?
Did you uninstall and reinstall the software for the printer since the update in OS?
Are you experiencing any other issues when it comes to setting related tools with the printer software on 10.10?
Look forward to hearing back from you! Have a great day.

How to print #9 (return) envelopes

I have an HP officjet 8600 and am running Mac OSX 10.8. I am trying to accomplish the simple task of printing a return envelope. This is a totally common size envelope but it is not listed as one of the standard sizes within the HP settings. I've created a document in word for mac that is the exact size of the envelope. When I go to print, whithin the print dialogue box I choose "page setup" then "custom" and I set the size to be the same as the word document. The printer brings in the envelope and then give me a "paper mismatch" error.
After spending hours with HP tech support, I was told the printers do not have the ability to print custom size paper but I find this hard to believe. Today I installed a recently released firmware update that I hoped would fix the problem but it has not. Is there a work around for this problem????

Hi,
To create a customer paper size:
Open the document you want to print.
Do one of the following:
Choose File > Page Setup. Choose Page Attributes from the Settings pop-up menu, and then choose Any Printer from the Format For pop-up menu. Choosing Any Printer ensures that your document can print on any printer that supports the paper size you select.
If Page Setup is not available, choose File > Print. If the Print dialog contains only two pop-up menus and some buttons across the bottom, click the disclosure triangle beside the Printer pop-up menu.
Choose Manage Custom Sizes from the Paper Size pop-up menu.
Click the Add (+) button.
Double-click the name of the paper size, and type Envelope 9.
Enter size of the Envelope in the Paper Size and Printer Margins fields, and then click OK.

How to set custom size of Close Button e.g. 32x32 of Title Window in Flex 4

How to set custom size of Close Button e.g. 32x32 of Title Window in Flex 4?

Hi
Here is the code of the Button in the skin class of spark title window.
<s:Button id="closeButton" skinClass="spark.skins.spark.TitleWindowCloseButtonSkin"
width="15" height="15" right="7" top="7" />
So first change the default height and width from 15 to 32. Then in the Button Skin class i.e. spark.skins.spark.TitleWindowCloseButtonSkin change paths to modify the cross symbol.
Hope this helps

I cant print custom sizes in photoshop CS3. Please help

I am on my Imac G4 using mac os x 10.4.11. I know that it is not my printer that is the problem. I have been told that I should upgrade to 10.5.x, I have also purchased a new CS3 because I dont have the original copy so I cant reinstall it. The trouble that I am having is that when I try to print custom sizes, the printer defaults back to 8.5x11. Only in photoshop does it do this. Has anyone else had this problem or know what I can do to fix it? I would really appreciate it. Thank you for your time. I will check back until this is resolved.

Russell,
Because your screen shots (they look like you actually shot them with a camera! ) don't show the whole Print Preview panel, I'm not sure at what stage you're losing the paper size, but it's pretty clear that by the time you invoke the printer driver, it's royally screwed up.
At this point I would:
• delete the printer from your printer list (in the Printer Setup Utility),
• re-install a fresh copy of the latest printer driver from the Epson site,
• then add the printer back in.
This is the kind of consistency you should be seeing (Command Click on each thumbnail to open the full-size image in a new web browser tab) [NOTE: this is CS4 running in Tiger 10.4.11):

Printing custom size prints

I am having trouble printing custom size photos on regular size paper. I use the custom scale setting in the layout dialog box. However, the result does not match the requested size in the preview window and it does not print the requested size. For example I would like to scale a photo to print 4x10 on a 8/12X11 sheet of paper. When I custom scale to 4x10 the result is 4 high but 7.5 wide. Any help would be appreciated? I'm printing on an HP 9180.

Have you cropped the photo to your desired 4x10 aspect ratio? If you do that, then the only printing part of the photo is that portion you've chosen in your crop. Then in the print dialog, you can tell it to print to 8.5x11 and set the margins there to .5 inch in order for it to scale to 10". Or have you done all this already?

Custom Size Envelope Printing In Address Book

First off, I'm using an Epson SC 880.
I want to print on 5x7 envelopes. I am able to define the custom size of 5x7, but when I attempt to print, it spits the envelope out unprinted.
I'm wondering if this is a printer driver problem or a bug in Address Book or if something I'm specifying in the custom size is wrong.
Any comments appreciated.

It appears that there is a major bug in this new version of Address Book. First I found that when you go in the "Print" panel, go to "Envelopes", go to "Layout", and then go in Layout to "Layout" submenu and use "Define Custom" which comes up "Layout Name" and when type in any name and click "OK" it UN-SELECTS the "Layout Panel" and you cannot change any of the parameters, BUT I discovered that if after you type in a "Layout Name", click "OK": and then click "Cancel" and then again open "Print". It opens to the same place as before (with everything the same) BUT with the Layout Panel SELECTED and you can now change all the parameters. I don't know about the printer printing blank sheets, because my printer seems to work fine. But I have a HP and you have an Epson. Hopefully those geniuses at Apple will get around to fixing this problem sometime in 2006 or 2007, who knows!!!!!

Problem printing custom size document

I am trying to print a custom size document (4.4"x7.2") that I created in Microsoft Word. I have set the Page size in Word, tried to create a custom size page in my Printer, and am unable to select this paper size in the properties of my printer (using the control panel). I am at a loss at how to eliminate the "Paper Mismatch" error. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. (I have two other size papers I need to generate documents for as well...4.4"x6.2" and 4.4"x8.2")
Thanks!

Welcome to the HP Community Forum.
I doubt I will get any thanks for this; some days are just like that. Smiling.
While there are several instances where the Specification Sheet is actually in error and Windows does support Custom sizes for some printer models in a similar printer class, I do believe that in the case of THIS printer model, the specs are correct: Only Mac OS supports Custom paper sizes.
More simply said: You cannot get there from here.
You are likely stuck with the paper sizes supported by the printer as specified in that Spec sheet.
I could not find the necessary file Create Custom Paper Sizes in Windows 7, Windows 8, and Mac OS X for YOUR printer model that one would expect to see in the How-to Support pages if the "Custom" paper sizes are supported for Windows.
I could be wrong -- I have been wrong before. I do not mind being wrong if it means you get what you need.
If you had something even close to what is allowed, you might be able to select something from the list, adjust the paper in the printer and try to get away with it by adjusting the Printing Preferences.

ID CS5.5 Mac - Trouble printing custom size 13x21 transparency

I am trying to print a positive transparency for a screen print. The document is 13x21. I have a 13 wide transparency roll from which I have cut a 21" piece. I'm printing to an EPSON 1400.
I cannot get the file to output to this szie. It cuts off the image within in 8.5x11 boundary every time.
I have:
- set a custom size in the print dialog
- clicked Page Setup in the print dialog and set the custom size there as well, ignoring the warning about it not being the ID print dialog
- the preview in the dialog will look perfectly oriented to the correct size in the little thumbnail
- I have tried everything I can think of to try and get the output sizes in sync and correct
- I switched to PDF to try that, fail again
Is there anyone that can help with some step by step of a process that will work?
Adobe ID CS5.5, EPSON Stylus Photo 1400, Mac Lion 10.7.5
I just can't comprehend how this could be so difficult and unintuitive. Any insight would be freaking wonderul.

Wow! Sudden serendipitous conclusion to this insanely frustrating issue.
I had found information that the EPSON 1400 should be able to print 44" long output by default. I was searching specifically to find folks that had printed large or panoramic imagery and stumbled onto a UK photography site where a person has mentioned he'd written software that would allow this printer to even print beyond 44". That sounded great.
BUT, the last post on the thread a guy mentioned how he was able to print up to 44" to an EPSON 1400 with ease. The solution, he said, was that the WIDTH of the print area in the page setup must be LESS THAN 13". Why? No explanation.
So I reset my custom size to 12.5x21 inches and BAM! First attempt from InDesign printed successfully. I can work with the margin.
Anyway, in case anyone else runs into this issue this works. Here is a link to the 2009 post that mentions this as well as info regarding printing longer than 44".
This one is solved.

Can't print custom size on Mac os 10.3.9.

Recently set up my new Epson 1400 printer but find it doesn't want to print any custom sizes.
Thought it was a printer error but was told that it may be something to do with the mac/program i am using. I'm working on Adobe Illustrator CS2... when i go to print then page set up I can set up the custom size needed ( 30cm-80cm ) on the untitled option, thinking all is going well i look on the print preview it looks exactly how i want it set up ready to go but it will only print Super A3 size even though i have told it not to. A little look closer on the main print page i can see that although the measurements are stored in there, they are not highlighted and neither is the custom button, i'm sure this is the reason why i can't get it to print the longer length needed, can anyone help me, its driving me mad???? thanks.

I'm using Tiger, but it may be the same in Panther.
Open the Page Setup window. In the *Format for* block there may be two choices available by clicking the arrows : Any Printer or your Epson. Select your Epson & you may have more choices for sizes.
 Cheers, Tom
