David, have you checked the cups settings?  I expected kprinter's settings to 
override anything in the cups settings, but it seems that it's not as simple 
as that.  I'm still having issues myself, but at least I did eventually find 
where the errant page size was set, and I'm pretty sure it was in cups.
