With printing preferences open for our Z5200, I can create custom paper sizes all day long. How do I edit or delete them?

maybe      remove that printer from printer control panel .

reboot & reinstall driver...

That seems extreme. I also have a Mac that I print from. On that I can edit the custom sizes I already created, as well as delete them if I want to. With Windows, it seems they are there to stay unless you go to the trouble of removing the printer and starting again. Surely that can't be the only answer.

In Windows , if you have remain print jobs in quequ & won't be able to remove    printer... can simply check    what is printing & delete all... you can remove printer after..

I am not an  Apple user & not sure how Mac steps to remove the printer....

google more for solution... should be easy & simple.

After downloading and installing the same driver you're using, I couldn't find any way to delete the custom page sizes you've created.  

 

I've checked on some other printer drivers I have loaded on my computer and haven't found a way to delete custom sizes on those, either.  So it might be a feature HP didn't think to include.

 

Maybe someone here with better access to HP factory might be able to help you more.

 

Is there a reason you need to delete them?

I don't work for HP....I just repair their printers.

Thanks @DHook.  At least I know that it's not something I'm doing or not seeing. Right now I just have 3 or 4 custom sizes, but I do a lot of printing of projects that require all sorts of atypical sizes. If I keep adding custom sizes my list is going to get pretty unwieldy. I just want to be able to clean it up periodically without having to go through removing and re-adding the printer and drivers. Just seems silly that HP would give you a way to create custom sizes and not give you a way to delete them as well.
