Can't print A3 on an A3 Printer (Hp colour inkjet cp 1700)

My printer is an a3 printer but i cannot print a3 documents on it from my laptop which is windows vista, other computers that are not windows vista can print to it though annoyingly.
When i go to print there just insn't an option for a3.
When i look at the printers set up, it says under the heading 'paper available' A4 - but i cannot change this even tho it is in a text box which looks like it should be able to be altered.

if anyone could help i'd be very grateful.

Print A3 to 4xA4 pages on Lexmark X4270 All In One

Hi!

Please download this software for converting your dwg, dxg,etc files into jpeg---

Dwg to jpeg Converter

And, regarding printing in black color only, you need to give it a print command and the click on prefrences button and from there select print in grayscale and then you will be able to print.

Please ask for any further clarifications.

Please rate this solution as Fixya if found helpful.

Thanks
