On a Mac running OSX 10.10.5 I am unable to change Emacs to print any other size but A4. I have set the ps-page-size to letter That page size letter is defined in the data base properly. But when I print a buffer it sends a A4 page. No matter what I change it to it always prints in A4 (which my printer hangs on).
