What do you mean, a new titleblock or pdf/printer settings?

Not a new titleblock. I need to create a page size that is 16" wide x 12" and send it to a particular printer that is installed on my computer. I have a list of page size options but none of them are what I need so I need to make a new one. The printer I am sending to is a laser cutter.

I've never used laser printing straight from Revit. It's probably printer settings, so not within Revit... I think. I am curious how you do it though, so let me know how when you get it working. 🙂

I did change the printing settings in the laser printer driver but every time I use that paper size in Revit it says "incompatible paper size". Is there anyway to add a paper size in revit without printing to a pdf?

As far as I know paper sizes are just printer settings on your system. When you've added a paper size you might have to restart Revit though.

No issues with creating a custom parer size for a Printer and print to that size from Revit.  Show your Revit print settings and the series of dialog leading to the errors.
