I need to print to a page that is 8.5" tall and 6" wide.
How can I get the right hex code to send to the printer to set this? If I don't set it properly the printer will not print stating that the page size set by the program does not agree with the size of paper in the printer.
Please help.

hmmm... PCL I suppose, NWP did not exist with that old version of WB. It's a newer HP OfficeJet 6500 a. It prints direct to port using a printer.sys type translation table. ... after redirecting it to an RTF document and opening it in word I found that even word had problems printing to the smaller custom size paper... wouldn't do it... until I changed the print quality to draft... So I guess now I'd like to try to get the hex code to set it to draft quality too. Sigh, they have 90 days until they need to do this again. Among the other options, I'm going to suggest they upgrade to our latest version... But I still think this poor HP printer will have similar issues.
Attached is a copy of the basic PCL-5 foldout that I use for most all PCL codes.
