PROBLEM PRINTING WITH LEGAL PAPER

 Maybe you have experienced that you had to print using legal paper, and you found out that the result was not as what you expected. Well, for your information, the size of legal paper mentioned in software sometime different with the actual size of the paper.
Just take a time to measure it manually. The legal paper in application like Microsoft Word is 8.5” times 14”, so measure your paper using ruler and make sure that the length is the same, because in some countries the length for legal paper is 13”.


In some new printers, there is a choice for US Folio which is 8.5” x 13”, so if you’re paper is 13” length then you can use this type instead of legal. And if you don’t have US Folio type in paper choices you have to create a custom size, you can do this in paper selection and click on more. Type the size to 8.5”x13” and name it what you want, and make sure you select this when you print in legal paper with 13” length paper.


Well, I hope this will help you to figure it out.
