Size paper = 11x21 cm
311,66 x 595  or 311 x 595?

[root at servidoruv ppd]# lp -d printer -o PageSize=Custom.311.666x595 /etc/cups/ppd/UVepson.ppd

How do I do  not using the size of the paper that is in the ppd file?
If that is possible, I define the size of the paper in my application.

Thank you for the attention,
Cleber
