I experienced the exact same problem. A recent fresh install of Edgy Eft Kubuntu resulted in days of frustration trying to use the Print Manager, CUPS (localhost:631), foomatic-gui, and anything else I could think of to get printing to Letter.
Finally I happened across a google to check /etc/papersize and lo and behold, it was set to A4. Note, however, that while this is related to libpaper1, /etc/papersize is not included in it according to dpkg -L: $ sudo dpkg -L libpaper1 /. /etc /etc/libpaper.d /usr /usr/lib /usr/lib/libpaper.so.1.1.2 /usr/share /usr/share/man /usr/share/man/man5 /usr/share/man/man5/papersize.5.gz /usr/share/doc /usr/share/doc/libpaper1 /usr/share/doc/libpaper1/copyright /usr/share/doc/libpaper1/changelog.gz /usr/share/doc/libpaper1/NEWS.Debian.gz /usr/lib/libpaper.so.1 Therefore I am concluding that the installer must dump this file in there. I will file a new bug accordingly and link to this.
