Usability: setting printer paper size

[Fred New]

I realize it is probably a driver-level problem, but it would be more useful if system-config-printer (GUI) would allow me to set the paper size during the "add printer" operation.  This parameter is currently set covertly and I can only change it afterward by editing the printer's driver properties.  There are a lot of us out here who don't use "letter".  Aunt Sigrid probably couldn't decipher the Postscript message I got when I tried to print letter paper on a LaserJet 5M loaded with A4.

And another thing, now that I have the paper size set correctly to A4, how do I go about printing a test page?  Is the test page button only available during "add printer"?
