Setting Larger Paper Size in LC Print Setup

Question

Hi! I've been using Print dialog in LC to ready my images to send as JPEG to local print shop. Really like the intuitive way to set margins and adjust position of image in border frame. So far I've only printed up to 8x10 so I've been able to use my all-in-one printer's driver to set the Paper Size. I want to ready a JPEG for print in larger size but my printer doesn't support width above 8.5". I've tried to install print drivers for printers that support larger paper sizes but they won't install without connecting to the actual printer. Can anyone help me with a workaround so that I can User Define Paper Size at larger dimensions for Print to JPEG File?

Attached is screenshot showing the dialog box I get when trying to User Define a paper size on my all-in-one.

Thanks!!!!!

1) In the Print Module Print Job panel- Set the [Print To...] field to "JPEG File"

2) Define the SIZE of the print 'paper' in [Custom File Dimensions:]

3) Set a [File Resolution] number to define the PIXELS size of the JPG you create. (eg. 300ppi x 20in = 6000px )

4) Then go back and re-define your page Margins and Photo Cell Size in the Layout panel.

5) Click on [Print to File] to create a JPG to send to your print service.
