Seagull Scientific drivers contain default settings for the maximum print size specific to each printer. These are based on manufacturer specifications. 

Printer manufacturers determine the media size and printable area based on the technical specifications of the printer itself. 

However, it is possible to change the  default settings within the printer properties dialog.
