Any entry that is greater than the maximum limits of the width and height control is rounded down to the maximum valid entry, while any entry that is smaller than the minimum limits of the width and height control is rounded up to the minimum valid entry. See "Custom width and height control limits." If units are in millimeters, the custom paper-size range minimum is the limit rounded up to the nearest whole millimeter. The custom paper-size range maximum is the limit rounded down to the nearest whole millimeter. Any non-numerical entry reverts to the last valid entry. Width and height entries are validated when the focus has changed. The resolution of each control is one millimeter or one-tenth of an inch, depending upon the current measurement units. Clicking the up and down arrows increases or decreases the current value by the increment amount (within the allowed range of values). The computer determines the rate at which the values change. Unit indicator labels change dynamically to indicate inches or millimeters, depending upon the measurement units the driver is currently using. To change measurement units, click the Measurement Units button. Software Technical Reference PCL 5c and PCL 6 driver features 73

The following table illustrates the relationships between the
Name
drop-down menu,
the command button, and the actions that take users from one state to another.
Width and height controls
The width and height values can be changed either by typing numeric strings into the
edit boxes, or by selecting the up and down arrows.
Any entry that is greater than the maximum limits of the width and height control is
rounded down to the maximum valid entry, while any entry that is smaller than the
minimum limits of the width and height control is rounded up to the minimum valid
entry. See “Custom width and height control limits.”
If units are in millimeters, the custom paper-size range minimum is the limit rounded
up to the nearest whole millimeter. The custom paper-size range maximum is the limit
rounded down to the nearest whole millimeter. Any non-numerical entry reverts to the
last valid entry. Width and height entries are validated when the focus has changed.
The resolution of each control is one millimeter or one-tenth of an inch, depending
upon the current measurement units. Clicking the up and down arrows increases or
decreases the current value by the increment amount (within the allowed range of
values). The computer determines the rate at which the values change.
Unit indicator labels change dynamically to indicate inches or millimeters, depending
upon the measurement units the driver is currently using. To change measurement
units, click the
Measurement Units
button.
