Changing Paper size in application

489 Contributor
I have a report that can fix on letter size paper of on legal size depending on the number of columns that is printed on the report. I would like to change the paper size in the program depending on the number of columns printed. I've tried using the Application.Pri nter.Papersize = acRPSletter but it doesn't seem to change anything, is there another command that I need to do along with this?

Thanks

Hi all, I am trying to print a report in A4 paper, but my printer's default paper is different (Letter 8.5 x 11 inches). So when i print, a significant part of the paper remains blank, because of the different margins. Does anyone know how to programmatically change the printer's default paper? Almost all properties of the Printersettings Class on this matter are ReadOnly. Thank u Panos
