Defining the Printer for Line Printing

The CPI, LPI, CPP, and LPP settings of your printer are used to set a PDF page size for your job when sent to that printer.

The page size setting in RDA is merely a visual guide and has no effect on your report's page size unless you check the Custom check box. When the Custom option is selected, the report will always get the custom page size from the report specifications no matter what the printer has defined for a page size. This table shows some common page sizes and how they map to CPI, CPP, LPI, and LPP:
