    Yes, The Printer's Driver Software will offer a list of standard paper sizes [in Photoshops print window you'll select "Print settings" to get there, at the bottom of the sizes list, you should see 'custom', just make a custom size for 11x14, save it and that’s it.

     

     

    I hope this helps

    Really the Raster Program / Printer Vendors should have been on thislong ago. However It is possible to rube goldberg a scaled down print on 11x14 print size. and with a little trial and error one will get the print they want (maybe). Here is the method I worked out with Photoshop, give it a try, sent your comments to are friends at Photoshop Tech.

     

    Printing Photo’s / Photo Documents on 11x14 inkjet paper with Photoshop
    • Please note the 11x14 issue is common to many raster editing programs however the solution offered here will likely need to be modified as each programs Page Setup processes are different.

    Printer Setup

    1- File> Print> Quick Setup > Business document

    2- File> Print> Main>
    A> Media Type / Paper Source
    Choose proper selections from drop down boxes
    B> Print Quality
    Choose High or your choice
    C> Color Intensity
    Choose Manual.... which provides slider controls for Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Intensity and Contrast. There is also an Auto selection which may be appropriate for certain paper types.

    3- Back out from Printer Settings to the main Printer Setup Window
    A> Scaled Print Size
    Enter a percentage vale to reduce the image size on the page (where 100% =image covers entire page)
    B> Position & Size
    Checking Center box will center image on page which does not work well for 11x14 in paper. An unchecked box allows for margin offsets either numerically via the height & width boxes or more easily visually with mouse moving image within paper rectangle

    4- Go back to the Main Tab
    A> Save your page setup
    I’m not sure if this only saves the Color / Brightness /Paper Type inFo or also includes Size / Scaling /Position info but at least it’s a start for the next 11x14 print

    Why not? There is no limit for printing size actually in Photoshop. It is the property of your printer wheather it supports the size or not for printing

    My printer supports a lot of different sizes, but 11X14 isn't listed.  Is there a way to set Photoshop up to print a size that isn't a standard size?

    It's Epson Premium Photo Paper, glossy finish, size 11X14. When I bought

    the paper, I thought there would be no problem. My knowledge of

    photographic papers, from traditional photography, led me to believe that 11X14 was a

    standard size. Unfortunately, with printers, that's not the case. I may

    just have to consider the purchase a loss and get a different size paper.

    Thanks.

    OK. I did not know Epson made that size of ink jet paper.

    I may just have to consider the purchase a loss and get a different  size paper.

    No. All you have to do is enter that size paper as a custom setting in your Print Settings. Under Paper Size look for a Custom Size dialog.

    Of more concern is using Epson Paper in a Canon Printer. I doubt you have a proper ICC profile.

    Try making an 11 x 14 custom size in Print Settings and run a test print.
