There is no legal size paper option choice when selecting paper. Other options reference Japanese sizes. What am I missing with this printer set up?

Welcome to the HP User Community.

 

Printer model and job type is everything for this type of setting (not provided).

 

Places to add to your check list...

 

Not all printers support Legal size paper.

 

Open the printer's Product Home > Select Category Product Information > Select Topic Specifications

Read the Specifications document

For example, read sections for Paper Handling, Scan, and Print

 

For a printer that supports the option, legal size paper might only be supported in one tray (for those printers supporting more than one tray).

 

Legal size paper must (also) be a supported paper type, for example, Plain Paper.

 

Legal size paper, if supported by your printer, might not be compatible with all other settings in your job.

For example, some printers support duplex printing for legal sized paper but only support 1-sided scan for this paper size.
