Presumably your iPad has been updated to iPadOS 16/17. Check to see if your printer has an available firmware update - as it may currently be using an older [now deprecated] version of AirPrint.


Otherwise, start here:

Use AirPrint to print from your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support


When using AirPrint, the available print options - including page size - are advertised by your printer. When using the print dialogue on your iPad, you can only select from the advertised options.


Some printers can detect the media that is loaded in one or more of its paper trays, others may have settings that must be set from the printers controls, by accessing a built-in web server using a web browser, or using a companion App supplied by the printer manufacturer.
