I think you are correct about KDE/Konqueror thinking my printer is set to "A4"but it is set to "US Letter".
in konquerorrc I find [KPrinter Settings] PrintCommand= Printer=tek It is the same in kmail. I don't think setting Paper size has any effect. Before making a change to paper size selection. ls -lat /home/tarvid/.kde/share/config | less total 184 drwxr-xr-x 2 tarvid tarvid 4096 Aug 1 10:36 ./ -rw------- 1 tarvid tarvid 1300 Aug 1 10:36 konq_history -rw------- 1 tarvid tarvid 2121 Aug 1 10:23 kickerrc -rw------- 1 tarvid tarvid 93 Aug 1 10:23 kcontrolrc -rw------- 1 tarvid tarvid 21648 Aug 1 10:15 kmailrc -rw------- 1 tarvid tarvid 108 Aug 1 09:06 kdeprintrc After making a change, saving it and clicking OK twice total 184 drwxr-xr-x 2 tarvid tarvid 4096 Aug 1 10:36 ./ -rw------- 1 tarvid tarvid 1300 Aug 1 10:36 konq_history -rw------- 1 tarvid tarvid 2121 Aug 1 10:23 kickerrc -rw------- 1 tarvid tarvid 93 Aug 1 10:23 kcontrolrc -rw------- 1 tarvid tarvid 21648 Aug 1 10:15 kmailrc -rw------- 1 tarvid tarvid 108 Aug 1 09:06 kdeprintrc So where is the change recorded?
