Bug Description
Hi to all
I am trying to setup a epson lq-590 and LX 300+ dot matrix printer on ubuntu 8.1
i have managed to install the printer and i am able to print a test page
the problem is, i want to do continuous printing for invoices, but there is no paper size matching my preprinted invoices
if i change it to the closest one on the printer settings it has no effect
the paper stil moves up to a4 size
i have changed the paper size in /etc/papersize to another size but then the printer does not print
Anny help would be appreciated
EDIT: changing papersize anywhere (Jaunty release candidate) has no effect. Only sudo gedit /etc/papersize and adding your format there changes something. That has to be fixed. Why have all the printing options if they do not take effect unless a "human being" edits a system file...

What applications are you printing from?
Are you using cups, or a different print handler?
