OK, now I am really confused. I downloaded the latest x86 Dapper Beta updates about 2006-04-27T02:00 UTC. Then I ran gnome-cups-manager under sudo as Jose suggested, intending to change the default paper size for my Brother HL-5170DN to letter. When I opened the printer Properties, I found the default paper size and page region already set to letter and the test page printed perfectly. Did running gnome-cups-manager with root permission and /etc/pagesize set to "letter" correct the problem or was it fixed by one of the package updates?
