Setting Up Custom Form Printing

To print custom forms, you need to set up the form size for the printer you use. You do this by setting up the operating system’s printer settings.

You may also need to change settings on the printer itself to print custom forms. (For more information about printing custom form sizes, see your printer’s documentation.)

To prevent slow printing, make sure that the Andale WT J font has been copied to your print server. (For more information, see “System Administrator Basics” in the “Getting Started” chapter of the System Administration Guide.)

To set up custom form printing in Windows

1 Access the print server properties for the printer that you want to set up.
2 Create and save a new form, or copy an existing form and edit it.
3 Specify any or all of these things:
Units (metric or English)
Paper width
Paper height
Printer margins
4 Set the printer as your default printer, or make sure to choose it when you print custom forms.
5 Set your printer preferences to match the shape of your form (landscape or portrait).
