<ESC>&l101A
Width of Custom Paper is specified by
<ESC>&f#Iwhere # = decipoints for (100 -
330)mm.
Length of Custom Paper is specified by
<ESC>&f#J where # = decipoints for (148 –
488)mm.
For instance:
4.25-inch x 5.5-inch will give

4.25-inch x 720 decipoints/inch = 3060
and
5.5-inch x 720 decipoints/inch = 3960.
