Using contact sheet for first time. nice! Blows away Photoshop just as the LR web galleries blow away all others.

Question: I cannot find where to set the print size, I want to do 11x14

Also can I save the file and print from Imageprint?

The help page online talked about templates. I don't see them. Thank You.

The left-hand panel in the print module shows LRs templates and this is where you can save your own settings as you build-up your own versions.

At the bottom, is a (pretty big) Page Setup button - use this to choose your print paper size!

To print outside LR, use the Print to jpg option on the right-hand side (near the bottom).  This will save your layout (with images) as a jpg.  You can then open this in your other software to print or whatever else you wish to do.

Assuming your using LR3, then at the bottom of the right-hand where it says "print job", the next line down has an option "print to " where you choose (using the little up-down arrows, either "Printer" or "JPEG file".

In the upper middle of your image, at the right side. The name of the last panel is "Print Job" and the first option, just below it, is "Print to".

Best regards.
