Package: gs-esp Version: 8.15.1.dfsg.1-1 When I print pdf documents from xpdf or using the lp command from the command line or print documents from Openoffice my system puts out letter formated pages. I have a Laserjet 4 and use Cups. I tried 2 different drivers (Gutenprint and Cups built-in). My printer takes in the request and then requests me to put in letter paper via the little printer config led. I am in Germany and only have a4. All variables in question (xpdf config file, /etc/papersize, openoffice printer settings) are set to a4. For the printer to work again I have to switch it off and on again to reset it. A temporary fix is to save Openoffice documents to pdf and then use Adobe Acroread to print the document, which works. This fix requires non-free software, which means printing in Debian main is broken for now (at least for us non-US people).
I also tested printing directly from Firefox, which also works. There I even forgot to change from letter to a4 before printing, but still the system send an a4 job to the printer.
