TOPIC

I recently installed the LaserWriter 8.4.x printer software, and now when I print US Letter Small is the default paper size. Is there a way to change this?

DISCUSSION

Some printers support both US Letter and US Letter Small paper sizes. To prevent text from clipping or wrapping to the next line on different printers, Apple recommends using US Letter Small. In the LaserWriter 8.4.x printer driver, the default paper size was changed to US Letter Small. Use the steps below to change the default paper size.

Step 1
Choose Page Setup from the File menu.
Step 2
Change the paper size, and any other selections you want to have for your printing defaults.
Step 3
Press and hold the Option key, then click OK.

A dialog appears verifying that the setting you just made are what you want to be your default printing settings.

Step 4
Click OK The Famous Apple!
