Default 11 X 17

I have a large table to create and then print, and it will work only on 11 X 17 paper. Can Word be formatted to this size? I tried using Custom Size in page setup, but got an error message regarding margins, and couldn't get past that point. I guess I'd like to create the table formatted for 11 X 17, then print to a file that I can then take to Kinkos to print since my printer won't handle large sheets. Any help will be appreciated.

The margin error message is just a warning that your document is too large
for your printer. You're free to ignore it. Word's maximum page dimension is
22 inches.

Alternatively, format the document at half size (ie, so it fits on letter
size), then get it printed out at 200%.

Find out what printer Kinko's will use and install that printer driver. Set
your document up for printing on that printer.
