Thunderbird print issue (second post)

[flatula...@deadspam.com]

Hi Guys & Gals, (and in betweens etc.)

Asked a week or so back; no response, so here goes again with fingers
crossed!

Lubuntu Linux 13.04 32 bit, TB 17.0.6

Whenever I print an email in TB the default page is set to US Letter.

Because of my location, I need A4.

I select A4, prints ok. Next time I go to print, US Letter is selected
by TB; my selection is not sticky.

Epson R800 photo printer.

No such issue with FireFox.

Any help?

And as usual, Thanks in Advance!

I had to reconfigure my default printer settings in Configure Desktop >
Printers (root privileges) using KDE on openSUSE.

Then changed it in Thunderbird, quit, restarted, and it stuck on A4.

Don't know the procedure on Lubuntu, and don't know why it sticks in
Firefox, but not Thunderbird.

Now to switch it back to US Letter. Yep, change stuck.

HTH

Thanks, looks like more research needed by myself!

Hmmm.

Online accounts / printers ... the default page size is set to A4. More
research!

Found it!

So intuitive LOL!

Missing a bit of language support, which seems to have fixed the issue.

So far, so good!

Chosen language is English / Australian - an oxymoron LOL!

Thanks for your help!
