Prints letter size not A4: CannonS300 w cupsys/gutenprint

Hello!

I'm having an annoying problem. My CannonS300 prints in letter size instead of A4, in spite of me customizing all known page size settings to A4.
I've changed in localhost:631 under my printer to A4,

dan@mainarch ~$ cat /etc/cups/ppd/CannonS300.ppd | grep DefaultP
*DefaultPageSize: A4
*DefaultPageRegion: A4
*DefaultPaperDimension: A4

dan@mainarch ~$ lpoptions
job-sheets=none,none printer-info='Canon S300' printer-is-accepting-jobs=1 printer-is-shared=1 printer-make-and-model='Canon S300 - CUPS+Gutenprint v5.0.0' printer-state=3 printer-state-change-time=1182809064 printer-state-reasons=none printer-type=36876 MediaType=Plain InputSlot=Auto PageSize=A4

I've not found much about this on internet, only this somewhat confusing thread on a forum:
http://www.groupsrv.com/linux/ntopic90078.html

Any ideas?

( first post however - first problem I've encountered in Arch, and it doesn't seem to be Arch orientated at all! I love Arch )
