OL2002: Cannot Print Large Paper Sizes Even When Printer Allows (278130)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Outlook 2002

This article was previously published under Q278130

SYMPTOMS

When you try to print anything that has a print area more than 32 inches high or wide, even on a printer that supports a larger print area, you receive the following error message:
Invalid paper size. Unable to display.
If you continue, you receive a dialog box that contains the following error message:
The paper size is not valid. Check the values for Width and Height under Paper.

CAUSE

The behavior occurs because Outlook has a print area size limit of 32 inches in either height or width.

WORKAROUND

To work around this behavior, select a page size that is no larger than 32 inches in either dimension.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
