How to set PAPER SIZE in PRINT VIEW

I am missing a step here in printing to Tabloid paper size.
How do I set the paper size in the actual document or on the actual sheet?
I am in Print View and I am guessing that it is showing the Sheets for my document as printing on 8 1/2 x 11 paper which appears to mean that no matter what I do - once I go to Print (like printing to Tabloid paper size) that this document will print at 8 1/2 x 11 even if it is printing on 11 x 17 paper.
I understand that I need to move the slider to get the document to fit on the paper but it appears that right now I am doing this simply to get the document to fit on 8 1/2 x 11.
Is there a setting somewhere that tells Print View what paper size to use? Is this set by Individual Sheet?
Thanks,
Jon

Ah crimeny. This is Inspector > Page?
I am getting a bit confused as to how to print on various size paper and how to SAVE THESE SETTINGS.
For EACH SHEET I have to do the following:
First I pulldown to the Printer and the Page Size in INSPECTOR
THEN I scale the Sheet Manually to fit this paper in PRINT VIEW
THEN I run PRINT?
Now what?
Is there a way to get this to Print in Color instead of Black and White?
Can I make some PRESETS somewhere that will let me print to this printer at Tabloid size in Color and then in Black and White and also make some PRESETS that will let me print 8 1/2 x 11 and 12 x 18 so I can just pulldown to these?
Thanks for any help. I'm not on a deadline but I am losing this battle apparently...

  • Change paper size when printing

    How to change paper size when printing pdf? No option for paper size appear.

    That is a feature of AirPrint. If you do a Google search on "AirPrint paper size" you'll find documentation from major printer manufacturers. For example, this is copied from some HP documentation:
    What paper and media sizes are supported? 
    With AirPrint, paper and photo media sizes are automatically selected depending on the application you are using on your Apple device, your HP ePrint printer, and the region in which you are using AirPrint. You do not have the option to select different paper sizes.
    For example, from Apple’s Photo application, if the HP ePrint printer has a separate photo paper tray, AirPrint uses 4 x 6 inch photo media as the default paper size. If the printer does not have a separate photo paper tray, AirPrint uses letter-size paper. If you are printing from Apple’s Safaribrowser, letter-size paper is the default paper size in the US region, and A4 is the default paper size in Europe.
    AirPrint supports the following paper and media sizes:
    Letter
    Legal
    A4
    4 x 6 in photo paper
    A6 photo paper

  • How do I change the default paper size for printing?

    I am running Firefox 3.6.3. Recently, the default paper size for printing unexpectedly changed to a user-defined size of 3.00" x 4.57". It used to be letter size (8.5 x 11). The default paper size is 8.5 x 11 for everything else. I have tried changing the size in the preferences dialog box and then clicking "default", but after I close Firefox or if Firefox opens a new window, the default size switches back to 3.00" x 4.57". Does anyone know how to fix this?
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == About 2 weeks ago

    In "mine" dutch firefox 3.6.12 there is no option to change paper-size see
    "about:config" Promise to be careful (and be!) Enter "print.postscript.paper_size" gives a empty screen
    "paper_size" gives a few results

  • Setting paper size for multi-tab numbers file?

    i have a (currently) 3 tab spreadsheet that someone is working with me on. two of the tabs i print to 12 x 18 and one of the tabs i print to 8 x11.
    right now i have to open inspector, set paper size to 8 x 11, go to print view and slider-scale to appropriate size so it will print to single width, open print dialog, select 8 x 11 printer, print the pages from this tab. then i go back to inspector, select 12 x 18, select next tab, go to print view and slider-scale to appropriate size so it will print to single width, open print dialog, select 12 x 18 printer, print the pages. then i select the next tab, go to print view and slider-scale to appropriate size so it will print to single width, and run a print to 12 x 18 paper.
    this gets me all three documents if i didn't make a mistake somewhere and forget to select the correct printer or open inspector or whatever.
    can someone tell me whether in numbers i can set a PAGE SIZE for a TAB (as i have done above) and have it stick or does the selection of a page size in numbers apply to the whole document? i keep sending this to my bookkeeper and getting it back and this is a whole lot of aggravation that is really messing up my workflow and there seems like i should be able to find a way to streamline this.
    note: i am actually /receiving/ xls from my bookkeeper (and exporting to xls when i send it to her) and we also need to keep the tabs together b/c one tab is pulling info from the others but i am wondering if there could be some kind of workaround.
    i'd like to ask her to just print the pages to pdf before she sends it to me but this is an added layer of work on her end that is not going to happen. also, i /can/ open in excel (i have excel for the mac) so if this works easier by printing from excel i will do that.
    any experience with this issue would be greatly appreciated.
    THANKS

    hi Y. BIG time thank you for this. i was not aware this was such an issue. i definitely cannot have any ambiguities in my spreadsheet and customizing it in numbers is the whole reason i am spending this time formatting (i.e. to make it intuitive and visual).
    that said, if accepting excel and then exporting to excel will cause problems i absolutely cannot have this.
    can you help me a little more on what the problems are? i have already got a file with two tabs directly imported from Quickbooks (by my book keeper in excel) and a tab that she set up that pulls data from these tabs - and then i have MY tab that i have been customizing and proofing and fixing as i go along. more info on this work below.
    are there commands i can run to clean this up?
    what is considered OK to do in numbers if i am accepting excel (printing? adding new numerical entries)?
    THANK YOU
    background: right now i am /mostly/ doing formatting things like adding bold outlines or adding color or whatever but i have /also/ been dragging and dropping some rows to put them in a better place and fixing some cell sums that were either left out by my book keeper or which needed to be added to check THEIR work. are you saying that by doing this i am setting myself up for various formatting issues such as merged cells?
    if so, once i finish the format of the spreadsheet and the tabs i can only exclusively open in numbers if this is necessary. are there some commands i can run to "clean up" issues? for instance can i go around the various tabs and unmerge cells to clean things up?
    also, i definitely cannot split up tabs into individual documents as the customized spreadsheets are pulling numbers from a set of tabs that are quickbooks imports....

  • How to set HP 4502 to print black only

    How to set my HP4502 to print from Mac in black ink only

    Hi @floraoverst,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I see you would like to print in black ink only on your HP Envy 4502 with your Mac running the Mavericks 10.9 Operating system. Please follow the steps listed below:
    Printing with the Black Print Cartridge Only option
    Click File and then click Print.
    Make sure your printer is selected.
    Verify that the Preset option is set to Standard.
    In the Copies & Pages menu, select Select Paper Type / Quality.
    NOTE:If this option is not available, click ColorSync. Then click the down arrow beside Quartz Filter and change the setting from None to Black & White.
    Select the Paper tab.
    From the Color option menu, select Grayscale.
    Select the Color Options tab.
    Select the Black Print Cartridge Only option.
    If that option is not listed, then it is not available. The printer will print using only the black cartridge, however, printing with one cartridge will be slower than printing with both cartridges.
    NOTE:To save the setting, click the arrow next to Preset and select Save As. Save the Preset option as Black Cartridge Only and then click OK. Then, the next time you want to print with just the black cartridge, select the Black Cartridge Only Preset.    -Source

  • How to modify the blob size, or how to set the size?

    i want to know how to modify the blob size, or how to set the size?
    what's the default size of blob?
    Thanks in advance.

    Blob datatype can contain binary data with a maximum size of 4 GB.
    when you enter 10kb file, the database will only use 10kb to store the file (depending on block size etc)
    if you want to modify the blob size, you may do like this:
    SQL> create materialized view t_mv refresh fast on commit
    2 as select id, dbms_lob.getlength(x) len from t;
    Materialized view created.
    SQL> alter table t_mv add constraint t_mv_chk check (len < 100);
    Table altered.

  • Unable to set paper size in SSRS (it always remain Letter)

    I am making a report in SSRS (SQL Server 2012). The main report has many sub reports under it. All main and sub reports have the following properties:
    Orientation: Landscape
    Margins: Custom
    Paper Size: A4
    When I export the report in Word, it always shows Paper Size as "Letter" and I have to change it to "A4" in it. Orientation and Margins are correctly exported. What's the problem with Paper Size? Why doesn't it export correct Paper Size
    as defined in SSRS which is "A4" and always resort to "Letter"?
    I see another use has same problem but no solution was identified.
    http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/fce60903-3d0a-4727-abcf-b2e3370bf7d8/ssrs-2008-and-page-size-issue
    EDIT
    I just created a new basic test report with one Tablix in it. It is also showing same behavior i.e. even though I have set Paper Size to A4 when I export the report in Word, it changes to "Letter".

    Hi Frank,
    I viewed XML file for a report. The xml file doesn't store paper size name.
    <PageHeight>8.5in</PageHeight>
    <PageWidth>11in</PageWidth>
    <LeftMargin>0.25in</LeftMargin>
    <RightMargin>0.25in</RightMargin>
    <TopMargin>0.5in</TopMargin>
    <BottomMargin>0.5in</BottomMargin>
    Thanks.
    Remember to mark as an answer if this post has helped you.
    This is my master report file and looks like it has correct values. Because orientation is landscape hence height is smaller than width in my case.
    <PageHeight>8.27in</PageHeight>
    <PageWidth>11.69in</PageWidth>
    <LeftMargin>1in</LeftMargin>
    <RightMargin>0.25in</RightMargin>
    <TopMargin>0.25in</TopMargin>
    <BottomMargin>0.25in</BottomMargin>

  • How to set and save Custom Print Settings in Aperture?

    How to set and save Custom Print Settings in Aperture
    Hi,
    I am printing 12x18" images on 13x19" sheets. I find it difficult to enter the 13x19" dimensions because each value jumps to another random value when I move to enter the second dimension. For instance 13 jumps to, say, 8.5 as I type 19 into the second box. Same with the sheet dimensions.
    Also, when I finally get it all correctly, the margins don't set themselves automatically - which I would I expect.
    Then, even though I save the setting by clicking Save Setting at the gear below, next time I turn Aperture on, it's all gone.
    Any ideas? Thanks.
    Raphael

    For me, it is working with these settings, Raphael.
    Does your image have a 12x18" aspect ratio? You may want to crop it to the desired aspect ratio before printing.
    I can only test with Aperture 3.6 on Yosemite 10.1.

    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.

  • How to set the size of a JTabbedane to the size of the frame

    I have a tabbed pane in a frame, I would like to know how to set the size of the tabbed pane, so that it occupies the whole of the frame which has been set to screen size.
    Thanks

    Is it not possible to use it with a GridBagLayout?Your question was "How do I get a tabbed pane to take all the space of the frame"?
    You where given the answer. Did you try it? Did it work? Then why are you questioning the suggestion?
    Its one line of code if you use a BorderLayout which by the way was specifically designed for this purpose.
    Yes you can do it with a GridBagLayout with about 5 lines of code.
    So the question is why would you want to write 5 lines of code when you can use one?
    If your question was "How do I waste my time forcing the GridBagLayout to size a component to take up all the space of the frame", then you would have received a different answer. (Although most people would have told you to use a BorderLayout anyway, since its easier).
