Manage Custom Sizes is greyed out

He is referring to:

+Menu > File > Page Setup > Paper Size: > Manage Custom Sizes+

It is possible you have locked the Print & Fax settings for that printer and it will not let you change them.

Or possibly there is a Permissions issue which is something that frequently plagues us in OSX. In other words you have lost the permissions for the settings file and again it won't let you alter them.

Check the first in

+Menu > Finder > System Preferences > Print & Fax+

and for the 2nd use +Applications / Utilities / Disk Utility+ to fix your permissions.

It is a little difficult as I can't see your setup and it is working fine for me. I tried varying the templates and switching between Word Processing and Layout mode but they are all working fine.

Which printer do you have selected in Page Setup?

It sounds like whichever one it is, isn't available.

Could you explain in more detail what is greyed out?

That much I did understand but I also get greyed out in the window that shows but I still can set the size I want. I clicked on the + down to the left and the grey turns black.

You can set up the same printer again in the Print & Fax preferences using another name then delete the problem printer.
