Firefox defaults to NA_Letter

When I print from Firefox it defaults to NA_Letter and when I change it to US-Letter/Letter it will revert back to NA_Letter. When I print I get error Paper missmatch.
Thanks

How did you change it to letter in Firefox? Did you go to about:config, applied paper filter and changed paper size for all printers Firefox can see?

My Firefox is also on na_letter, I'm starting to wonder what it is, North America Letter? Makes me think your issue may lay elsewhere, what is the paper size in your CUPS?
