VBA Code:
If Range("BA1").Value = 1 Or Range("BA1").Value = 2 Then
    Range("AB7").Value = "EE #"
    Range("Y1").Value = 1
    lastR = Range("BC2").Value
    ActiveSheet.PageSetup.PrintArea = "$A$22:$O$82,$AA$5:AX" & lastR
    With ActiveSheet.PageSetup
        .LeftMargin = Application.InchesToPoints(0.25)
        .RightMargin = Application.InchesToPoints(0.25)
        .TopMargin = Application.InchesToPoints(0)
        .BottomMargin = Application.InchesToPoints(0)
        .HeaderMargin = Application.InchesToPoints(0)
        .FooterMargin = Application.InchesToPoints(0)
        .PrintComments = xlPrintSheetEnd
        .PrintQuality = 600
        .Orientation = xlPortrait
        .PaperSize = xlPaperLegal
        .FirstPageNumber = xlAutomatic
        .Order = xlDownThenOver
        .FitToPagesTall = 1
        .PrintErrors = xlPrintErrorsDisplayed
        .ScaleWithDocHeaderFooter = True
        .AlignMarginsHeaderFooter = True
    End With
    z = ActiveSheet.PageSetup.Pages.Count
    ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.PrintOut From:=2, To:=z, copies:=x, Collate _
        :=True, IgnorePrintAreas:=False

with Range("BA1").Value is 1 or 2 the macro runs through the above code fine except that it prints on Letter size paper although in the code I specified in the code ".PaperSize = xlPaperLegal"

can not seem to figure out why. Any help is greatly appreciated.
 

Excel Facts

Excel Joke
Why can't spreadsheets drive cars? They crash too often!
Can you confirm that if you print it manually, legal size does what it is supposed to do ?
(to rule out a printer driver issue)
Can you also confirm that you are not needing to select a specific printer tray eg there is one loaded with Letter and one with Legal ?
I don't believe you can control that in VBA.
