    Choosing paper size

    When installing wepa print apps, select the Large format option in order to print on paper sizes other than letter. When printing, most print dialog boxes will default to the correct paper size for the document you are printing. If you need to change this (e.g. to legal or tabloid) you should be able to select within the print dialog box. If printing from Adobe software (Acrobat, Photoshop, InDesign, etc.), after choosing Print, select Page Setup to adjust the paper size.

  1. Login to wepanow.com
  2. Select Web Upload
  3. Locate the documents using the file finder or drag the documents you wish to print to the browser
  4. Select Send to wepa to add them to your account
  5. Go to a wepa printer, login to select your payment method, and retrieve your document
