            Bug ID: 408270
           Summary: Okular always prints in A4 on physical printers, even
                    when Letter is the default
           Product: okular
           Version: 1.7.1
          Platform: Archlinux Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal

          Assignee: okular-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: matthewtrescott at gmail.com

I turned off WiFi temporarily so
CUPS would hold my print job (it's a network printer), then printed my
Letter-size PDF. I double-checked the printer properties in Okular to make
sure that it was set to Letter (Letter is the default for the print queue
so the paper size was already correctly set). However, when I opened the
corresponding PostScript document in /var/spool/cups, it had the distinctive
sqrt(2) side ratio of A-size paper. This confirms the results I had when I
permitted the print jobs to go through previously and discovered this bug---I
just didn't want to waste paper this time.

Attachments are coming shortly.

System: 
Arch Linux (fairly up-to-date)
CUPS 2.2.11
