This may or may not be of help.
Are you sure it says "11 x 17" and not "17 x 11"
Windows may not match a "17 x 11", but if you define your own and format
a "11 x 17" might work.
The key is how the software interprets the printer driver in regard to
paper length and width.

I'd be happy to file a bug report, but I'm hoping to find out a bit more the
situation before I do. This delay is partly selfish, because my personal need
is to find a workaround, but I'm hoping it will also help correct the problem
if I can give some details.
