Dan, I was referring to print-to-PDF, not to a physical printer.

I have no problem configuring my Brother printer with the page set-up
selection as you indicated.
My issue is with print-to-PDF: there zero (0) selection options - even when
page set-up is configured, the print-to-PDF seems to completely ignore it,
and any output requested as smaller than letter size (in appearance, say
6x9) will end-up as letter size.
