      If you set the paper size to a non-metric paper (i.e. US Letter), QPrinter::setPaperSize silently fails.

      main.cpp
      #include <QtGui>

int main(int argc, char ** argv) {
  QApplication app(argc, argv);

  QPrinter printer;

  printer.setPaperSize(QPrinter::A4);
  qDebug() << printer.paperSize() << printer.paperSize(QPrinter::Millimeter);

  printer.setPaperSize(QPrinter::A5);
  qDebug() << printer.paperSize() << printer.paperSize(QPrinter::Millimeter);

  printer.setPaperSize(QPrinter::Letter);  // Absolutely nothing happens
  qDebug() << printer.paperSize() << printer.paperSize(QPrinter::Millimeter);

  return app.exec();
}

      I have confirmed that the printer supports US Letter paper in the print dialog.
