Go to about:config in the URL Box of Firefox then select
print.postscript.paper_size
and edit the default paper size to A4
close and restart Firefox
This will work of course for only the person logged in.
in a file in ~/.mozilla/Firefox/<system.default/prefs.js
if you want it for all users copy the correct line to
/usr/lib/Firefox-1.5.0.9/defaults/profile/prefs.js

It might be that FF will store in the /usr/lib.. location if run under
root (I believe I remember reading that once when I was installing a
plugin - might not still work)
