Hi,

I've now created a lpoptions-file. 
lpoptions -p mfpa6 -l gives the following:

PageSize/Page Size: Custom Letter A4 Photo Photo5x7 3x5 5x8 A5 *A6 B5JIS Env10

300DraftGrayscaleK 300GrayscaleK 600GrayscaleK


But printing a DINA6-Postscript file, say a6test.ps, doesn't work. The command 
lp -d mfpa6 -o PageSize=A6 -o PageRegion=A6 a6test.ps

gives the same as directly printing from OOWriter.

I noticed the following:
When I print a DINA6-file from Windows and put DINA4 paper in the printer then 
the printout is centered horizontally on the paper.
When I do the same under linux, the printout is placed on the top left corner 
of the paper.

I think that's why the printout on a DINA6 paper is cropped.
