MacOS – How to get Mac OS X printer preset to save paper size and not default to system default paper size

macosprinting

I have a receipt printer and regular printer on my Mac and have the system default paper size set to Letter and default printer set to "Last Used"

In Safari I've setup a preset for my receipt printer but when I select it, the paper size still defaults to letter instead of the receipt paper.

I change the paper size to receipt size, select "Save current settings as preset" and all settings are saved in preset except the paper size.

How can I get the preset to save the paper size?

The Printing from Safari setup sequence for multiple printers.

Click on Print and in the pop up choose your printer and the settings you saved for it.

When saving you will be asked for which printer the settings apply.
