Printing custom paper size

Hi all,

I'm trying to figure out how to set up kde to print on custom paper sizes. I want to print an invitation on 26x13.5cm cards, so I designed it in inkscape and saved it as a pdf in the correct size. But I'm clueless as to how I can get kdeprint to print this. I set Properties->General->Paper Source to Tray 1 (Manual), which is the manual feed, but Paper Size is restricted to a number of standard sizes, no possibility to use a custom size or simply ignore and use whatever gets picked up by the feed. When I leave it at A4, the printing manager shows processing, and then nothing. Any ideas on how to do this?

Using gutsy 7.10, kde 3.5.8 and an HP 2605dn on the lan
