Public bug reported:

I'm trying to print name tags using Avery labels #5383 (US letter size).
However, when I try to print them, they're aligned wrong.

Although I've been careful to specify US letter size in the label
creation wizard, the created document is wrong. The settings dialog
available from the print dialog lists the paper size as A4, NOT letter.
In Format > Page, the size is given as 7.77" x 9.85". The correct page
size is 8.5" x 11".

Of course, printing with these settings simply doesn't work when I have
letter size paper in the printer's tray. (A4 paper isn't available
here.)

In addition, the labels are too short, so that they don't align with the
perforations on the paper. The labels are supposed to be 2 1/6" high,
but they're printing at approximately 2 1/8".

In case it's relevant, I'm running OpenOffice 2.2.0-1ubuntu4 on Feisty.
My printer is an HP Deskjet 5150 using the hpijs driver.
