Check for a file called /etc/papersize and see if it has the paper size you 
are expecting. If you don't have such file, you'll need to edit your devps 
DESC file directly.

Hint, copy the DESC file to 
/whatever_is_your_install_prefix/share/groff/site-fonts/devps and edit that 
copy. You'll keep your settings through updates this way.
