gnome-print config question

Hi there,

I have a question about setting the page size for the job. I would like 
to set the paper size to one of the following:
    Letter, Legal, A0-A5, B0-B6, B, C, D, or E.

The trick is that I need to set the page size _before_ the job is laid 
out and the gnome-print dialog appears.

My problem is this: when I set up gnome-print config from default, I 
can only choose from the handful of sizes (Letter, Legal, Executive, 
A4, Monarch Envelope). No A0-A3, A5, B0-B6, etc. It seems that this is 
because my CUPS printing system only supports that handful of sizes.

Is there a way to initialize config to the Postscript backend so that 
more paper sizes are available to set in config?

If this is a silly question and I totally misunderstand the inner 
workings of gnome-print, could anybody please direct me to any docs 
explaining these things.

Thanks in advance for any help,
Alex
