Use the word-processor you like, open a new file, set the page-size to
the one which matches with the sheets stashed in your printer, take one
leaf out and hold this real piece of paper (which is 21 cm wide in case
of DIN A4) at the one displayed on the screen. Both must be congruent.

My labtop's screen was even wrongly detected then, the correct values are: 
$ xdpyinfo | grep -B1 dot /dimensions:    1280x800 pixels (303x190 
millimeters)/resolution:    107x107 dots per inch --> 
107dpi means, that 1 inch span contains 107 dots. I can take a ruler and 1" on 
screen is exactly what my ruler measures as well.

I don't know if Kubuntu has fixed the bug, because I use another distro
meanwhile.
