I think this is related to another post that was going on in the last
couple of days...

Try going to options> preferences > startup and ticking the load and
retain printer information in workspaces boxes.

In the past, I've solved this by going into the printer settings and
defining the page size I wanted to use.  Then when I call up that
printer in MapInfo, that page is already defined and when I save the
workspace with the printer info, the workspace references the custom
page size and will call it up correctly the next time.  I don't know if
all printers allow custom setups, but the HP large scale plotters I use
certainly do.

Hope this helps.

Mark
