The HP drivers available for XP on HP's website don't give me enough printing
option features that I had in Win98. I can't do custom sizes....say like 5"
x34" long.
If I knew how to uninstall XP Home on this new machine, I would and I'd put
Win 98 back on.
Can anyone at Microsoft help me because HP can't. Help I'm losing money
because I can't print what my customers are needing.

I need to be able to set the size because when I want to run a small sample
of the print, I want to be able to check colors. In the old print window (98
OS) I could specify 5" x 36" (36" printer), run a color sample and if it
wasn't right, I would roll the paper back into the machine, adjust colors and
run it again.
The 2nd time that I ran a sample, the PRINT PREVIEW window allowed me to
click on the image and move it over so that it wouldn't print right over the
sample that I just did. When you are using papers that can run a couple of
hundred dollars for a small roll, you want to conserve as much paper as
possible.
