Setting printer is always challenging. We try our best to cover all of possible situations in this tutorial.
Before start, please check for the biggest paper size that your printer capable of. If you have no idea about that, you can simply count marks on your printer where you insert paper. Starting from 0 and every mark is an inch. Then check on the table below and read note on the category you fall under.
