?
Letter page is 8.5 inches wide = 612 points.
ps-left-margin = ps-right-margin = 2cm = 56.7 points
612 - 2 * 56.7 = 498.6
So everything looks fine to me. (Surely the margins can't influence the
physical paper size anyway?)
gv tells me the resulting ps is letter-sized.
ps-print hasn't changed in time immemorial, AFAIK.
