Custom Paper Sizes

If you have any paper sizes other than the defaults supplied, you can add the new size to this table and then apply the size within the Printer Profile.

You can charge for print jobs based on the size of paper used to print the job. For example, you could set a cost of $0.10 per page for Letter sized pages, and $0.15 for Legal sizes. For very large paper sizes used in plotting of large drawings, you may want to use square footage or square meter tracking instead.

To use paper size costing you need to ensure the paper sizes you use in your day to day business are included in the Paper Sizes list. You also need to set pricing with a User Profile, a Printer Profile or an Application to use "per paper size" as the print option and assign that profile to your printers.
