This is to do with Locales.  They fixed it in win2K and above....Default
user in NT was always set to US locale.  You had to edit the default user
profile to correct.

Doubt this will be much help, but I'm a little confused about the
whole thing myself :)

On NTTSE, the drivers would always install with Letter as the default
(we're in the UK, should be A4). Since installing on 2003, it knows to
change the default to A4 - I can only assume that since theyre (nigh
on, same release and version, just not NT kernel mode, obviously) the
same drivers, somewhere along the line MS added something for drivers
to check the locale and configure themselves?

PDF documents never had a problem though, they always resize
themselves to fit the page - I assume they know what theyre printing
on from the driver settings themselves!
