bug#21741: 24.5; default printer page size can not be changed

[Emilio Sovero]

On a Mac running OSX 10.10.5 I am unable to change Emacs to print any
other size but A4.
I have set the ps-page-size to letter
That page size letter is defined in the data base properly. But when I
print a buffer it sends a A4 page. No matter what I change it to it
always prints in A4 (which my printer hangs on).
