    I have an HP1220C Deskjet. I recently switched from VMWare to Parallels. Using VMWare I was able to print 11x17 format. Now the printer always prints 8.5x11, no matter what the settings. Any ideas?

    Hi JoelLich,

    Please connect the printer to Windows Virtual Machine through USB and install the printer drivers which will help you in printing to desired format.

    Tried your suggestion, but it still didn't work. I found that I had to disable the Configure/Print/Add All Mac Printers option, then it printed fine direct from the Windows side. It was losing the format information when printing through the Mac side. Should it work either way?

    I have the same problem with the same printer. Would love to see this resolved in a future update as I use this printer on both my Mac side and my Windows Side (For AutoCAD 2014), and this seems like a lot of work to do every time I want to print something.
