Default report page size limitation

I'm trying to print a report on an architectural drawing sheet which is 24" X
36" out of a Xerox 8850 printer. I currently have to settle for selecting 17
X 22, because when I select anything larger and try to send to print, I get
the following error:
"Microsoft Access can't print or preview the page because the page size you
selected is larger than 22.75 inches."

My question is - Is 22.75" the largest because of a limitation in Access, or
is there a way to alter that to accept a larger paper size? I see nothing in
the page setup menu that would allow me to do that.

Thank you in advance for any feedback!

That is a hard limit. A report's design width can be
smaller but not larger. It's a moot point so I don't know
for sure, but the same limit probably applies to the page
size.
