try this

PrintDocument pd = new PrintDocument();

pd.DefaultPageSettings.PaperSize = pd.PrinterSettings.PaperSizes(200,200);

You don't set a thinckness, you set a PaperType via the PageMediaType property[^]
The available types are: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.printing.pagemediatype(v=vs.110).aspx[^]

How do you get the Ticket? From the PrintTicket property of the PrintDocument instance.

That's the theory, anyway - I haven't tried it!
