Printer selected is not valid.

I want to print a custom size page in a dot-matrix printer. When the
printer selected is the dot-matrix then this error occurs, when the
laserjet printer is selected then the print job is completed.

Any sugestion?

We had it happen as well and it turned out to be a Windows problem. Our
situation was a bit different because we were running Citrix WINFRAME
which acts as a huge print server and it would just dump printers out of
its list through the day and as it did this, we would get the error
messages. I don't think this is the problem for you, especially if you
are running this on a stand-alone machine. Hope it helps you find
something.
