Legal paper size

sql server reporting services: I have sized a report as 8.5 x 14. However, when I press the print icon
(thank you SP2), it prints as 8.5 x 11. I do not want to go and change the
printer properties everytime I print the report. Any ideas or suggestions

You need to republish your reports for the page sizes to be picked.
Alternately you can call the SetProperties SOAP method and set the page
properties.

You can see what size Report Server is sending to the control by doing the
following:

Right Click in the toolbar area and view source.
Search for the variable "printhtmlurl" (something like that, I am doing
this from memory)
Put that url in your browser.
Close the dialog
View Source again

You should be able to see what size RS is sending to the control (sizes are
in millimeters). If the size is not 8.5 x 14 then something is going wrong
on publish. If it is then the most likely issue is the printer driver does
not like the value and is converting it to 8.5 x 11 for some reason.
