Version: Dapper Beta with all updates to 2006-04-23. This problem occurred when adding a network connected (lpd) Brother HL-5170DN printer using the recommended Postscript driver. Page size was unalterably set to A4. Changing /etc/papersize to letter had no effect. Subsequent to changing /etc/papersize to letter, I added a network connected (jetdirect) Brother HL-1440 and network connected (jetdirect) HP DeskJet 5850 with no problem -- the resulting default paper size was letter. Deleting the HL-5170DN queue and adding it anew resulted in A4 again and no attempt to change that was successful. Could this be a problem with the generic Postscript PPD or driver?
