Printer does not support Letter papersize error

Background:

This article discusses what to do when your printer does not support the letter paper size.

Steps to Complete:

1. You will have to set the PaperKind to Custom and also give any unique string to PaperName.

this.PageSettings.PaperKind = System.Drawing.Printing.PaperKind.Custom;
this.PageSettings.PaperName = "My Paper";

2. You can also set the PrinterName to an empty string to allow all paper sizes.

rpt.Document.Printer.PrinterName = "";
