 Check the config files for ghostscript looking for the a4 paper size
 definition.... when you find it you'll see it describes the size
 in some wierd measurement... now check exactly what a a4 page *should*
 be and what your printer is printing... and scale the number and
 create a new page size definition.

 Should work.
