WIA Paper Size Pre sets (Default)   
Hello, I have two scanners.  An Epson flat Bed and an HP Officejet.

My preference is to use the WIA driver.  Since the driver defaults to a 
paper size I do not use, how can I change and save the default paper size ?

Interesting that the default size comes up as "Legal" (8.5 x 14), where 
Letter (8.5x11) is used more often.

Many Thanks

Hi,

Can you clarify exactly what steps you are taking to obtain the 
information of the paper size?

A scanner is not supposed to have a default paper size, it's supposed to 
have a bed size (which can be converted to a paper size subject to about 
100 criteria such as scan resolution, cropping and scaling).

I am not sure what information you are looking for.

So, I attempt to answer:

When I scan a document (US Letter) for example, the document is scanned as 
US Legal.  There does not appear to be any setting in the WIA dialogue to 
default as US Letter. The keyword is DEFAULT.

The paper sizes when scanned can be changed to any  size, however when the 
scan is finished, and later a new scan is initiated, the first size in the 
list comes up US Legal - No way of setting the default to US Letter and 
saving the setting as default.

The 100 criteria: I only need to adjust the scanned paper size (resolution 
is fine etc), there does not apear to be any setting in the WIA GUI for 
changing any settings.

I hope this is the information you are looking for.

Many Thanks

Re: WIA Paper Size Pre sets (Default)   
Hi,

Can you explain the exact steps you use below; e.g. what app do you 
open, and what buttons do you click and where do you see "US Legal" 
written on the screen?

I can then do the same on my system and try to help.
