The paper tray in HP laser printers all have a setting for A4 paper. You
just have to move the plastic markers (which can be tricky). Its more
difficult to get the paper but I have someone in our London office send it
to me.

Our company has offices in the US and Europe. All our European documents
are formatted for an A4 paper size, as individuals in our Euro offices tell
us that it can be quite difficult to get 8.5x11 paper (or printers set up
to
handle it) over there. Conversely, it's almost impossible to find A4 paper
& printer trays for it in this country.
Loads of fun!
