Guys,
What function to use to get the current paper type/size and later on restore it?

TIA

Hua,

This info from my notes may help.

Regards,
James

oPrinter:setSize( nWidth, nHeight )

Where nWidth and nHeight are in tenths of a millimeter.

25.4 millimeters per inch

So to set the size in inches

oPrinter:setSize( 254 * nWidth, 254 * nHeight)

Where nWidth and nHeight are in inches.

oPrinter:GetPhySize()

An array with the dimensions of the paper: {nHeight ,Width}
Units of height and width are not given in the help file.

Thanks for the reply James. I found those 2 and had tried using them but couldn't get them to work properly as I'm not sure how to correctly convert the values returned by oPrinter:GetPhySize()

Hua,

Well what paper size is the printer set for and what is oPrinter:GetPhySize() returning?
