same problem exists in 9.04 beta. for LaserJet 5M
Printing always sends in "letter" format, disrespecting the printer driver setting that is clearly set to "A4"

can be solved by ; sudo dpkg-reconfigure libpaper1

but the real solution should be that default paper format should depend on the locale variable.
LC_PAPER="nb_NO.UTF-8" <- should mean A4.
