[WinPrnDev] Re: How to delete system default printer forms?

Hi Christoph,
The forms we'd like to remove are not exposed to the printer drivers' dialogs, believe me, we've looked. Thanks for the response though :) 

best,

Hi Matt,

Printer drivers can also provide their own form sizes. So you might need to 
edit the forms list via the printer drivers own dialog, if it provides that 
feature.

Best regards,
Christoph

Hi Folks,

On Windows there are system default printer forms which can't be deleted from 
the Print Server Properties dialog. Is there some other way they can be 
removed? We are never going to use page sizes like Envelope, B5(JIS), US Std 
Fanfold, etc. and I'd like to save users (and myself!) from having to scroll 
through a big long list of noise.

I've tried deleting from the registry key 
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Forms, but that only works for some 
forms, and there many forms listed in the Server Properties dialog that don't 
show up under that registry key.

Also asked here, last year: 
http://serverfault.com/questions/64607/how-to-delete-system-default-printer-forms

Does anyone here have something that might work?

thanks,
