Because printer-driver settings are overridden by media-size settings in most software programs, use the printer driver to set media size only for software programs that don't have a media-size setting, such as NotePad, or when producing a book or a booklet that does not require different media sizes.

NOTE: When using a software program that has a media-size setting, specify different media sizes within a single document by using the Use Different Paper/Covers options.
