Hello,

It is the first time for me to join this newsgroup and I hope it is the best
place to post my problem. I'm using gs 2.4.2 with the PaintJet XL (driver
paintjet.dev). Normally I use the printer with A4-sized paper (8.5 x 11.7 inch),
but recently I needed to print on A3-sized paper (11.7 x 16.4 inch. So I changed
the PainJet-driver to the needed metrics. After a while gs core-dumped and
nothing happend. Is there somebody out there who has a driver for the PaintJet
XL supporting sheets of paper, which are larger then legal.

Recently I received gs 2.5.2, with the PaintJet XL driver, but my problem seem to be
the same. I cannot make gs to print on A3 paper, although I started it with the
papersize-switch.
