paperconf outputs "a4". Since both are set to A4, why do the apps insist on defaulting to Letter?
Because it is the 1 true paper size :D j/k even though from the usa I prefer a4 anyhow ... Seriously- the thing about unix printer setups and configuration tools is that there are so many to choose from - some are going to use PAPERSIZE env var, some will use paperconf, some will have their own (eg. gnome-print), etc. Probably the printer is printing whatever raw data is given to it from the application - so its likely in the program config rather than printer setup config or one particular configuration tool. Don't have any specific tips for these applications - but I'd check the docs for the individual apps 1st. Cheers, - Chris
