Whenever I try to print for the first time in a new app or new user, nothing happens if I don't remember to go into the app's paper setup and select the proper paper. It seems this is because I own no A4 paper nor A4 paper trays, yet the system defaults to A4 paper.
In YaST2 printer, after waiting eternally for repo data I didn't ask for to download, I select printer options for my only printer, and driver options default paper in your printer is grayed out and set to A4. How do I change the global default to letter? What mysterious file is set to A4? How do I eradicate the possibility of using A4 paper? Is it even possible to acquire A4 paper in the USA?
Interestingly enough, my printer defaults to Letter, which is the USA standard, and not the A4 we use here (in Australia). I set the default to A4 and it keeps coming back with Letter :-) . (I also found that under KDE4.2RC1 any settings I set for mc (midnight commander) are ignored and the next time I start mc I get the original, default, settings. Not nice. But I have found the solution to the problem, and also figure that KDE4.2 Final just might again have things working as they did like in 4.1.)
