You don't. You set it up in the Printer Definition in indows, and then
Access can use it.
 
You may need new printer drivers. The available sizes are dependent on
the Window's printer drivers not Access.
 
Setting up custom paper sizes is totally different in the Win NT
4/2000/Win XP environment compared to Win 95/98/ME.

Go into the list of Printers under the Settings button from the Start
menu. You may need to do this on the print server. Then click on
File >> Server Properties Then you can create a new form with the
sizes you want on it as well as a name.

Then you can follow the below steps inside Access to choose the just
created Paper Size. Go into the design of the report, Click
'File',Page Setup', Click the 'Page' tab., Select 'Specific Printer',,
Pick the printer you are using., Click 'Properties' then the 'Paper'
tab., In 'Paper Size' select 'Custom'. and choose your just created
Paper Size.
