[JAVA2D] How to set custom paper size using printer jobs

[java2d]

I am trying to set a custom paper size using printer jobs but it does not take 
my custom paper size and instead it takes the default paper size. The code I am 
using is as follows:

PageFormat pageFormat = job.defaultPage();
        Paper paper = new Paper();
        paper.setSize(500,500); // Large Address Dimension
        paper.setImageableArea(20, 20, 450, 420);
        pageFormat.setPaper(paper);
        pageFormat.setOrientation(PageFormat.PORTRAIT);
                try {
                        job.setPrintable(this,pageFormat);
                        if (job.printDialog()) {
                                job.print();
                        }
                } catch (PrinterException e) {
                        e.printStackTrace();
                }

What am I doing wrong?
