I have a receipt printer with a custom paper size, and a standard printer connected to a computer. The receipts I need to print need to be printed from a browser. Windows has a "feature" when printing from a browser (tried chrome, firefox, and IE) using the windows print dialog box it will set all the printers paper size to the paper size of the default printer. I can manually change it each time to my custom paper size but that is annoying, and if you go look at the control panel devices and printers it still has my custom size listed. Does anyone know if there is any fix for this?

I fixed it though. Epson tech support said not to use the built in Chrome printer, to use the windows dialog box printer instead. I use the built in chrome print dialog box and it works fine.
