I found solution to my problem by doing this:
1-assured that in /etc/papersize there is written only a4.
2-open /usr/share/ghostscript/8.71/lib/ghostpdf.ppd and erase every line with 
inside the word "letter".
3-open /etc/cups/ppd/KM-1635.ppd (instead of  KM-1635 use the name of the 
printer that doesn't print to a4) and delete the line where there's write 
letter/letter like this

*PageSize Letter/Letter: "%% FoomaticRIPOptionSetting: PageSize=Letter"
*FoomaticRIPOptionSetting PageSize=Letter: "-p1 "

*PageRegion Letter/Letter: "%% FoomaticRIPOptionSetting:
PageSize=Letter"

*ImageableArea Letter/Letter: "12.00 12.00 600.00 780.00"

*PaperDimension Letter/Letter: "612 792"


4)changed in firefox at about:config every line where there's letter on 
na_letter or letter to a4 and the dimension of that format forced to height 297 
and width 210. when i restart firefox the values of print.postscript.paper_size 
was returned to letter for example but the printer print correctly to a4.

Sorry for my english... Bye
