[AccessD] Big Page

Dear List:
 
Is there any way to format a report to 11" x 17" (landscape) and show that
size page, without having a printer installed which can print that big? 11"
x 8 1/2" seems to be a fixed size and I'm thinking it's tied to the selected
printer.   
 
I installed an HP5000 PCL which gives me the option on the page setup to
select 11 x 17 but when I do a print preview it goes back to Letter size -
doesn't seem to want to 'remember ' the 11 x 17.  I have it set to print to
the specific printer - the HP.
