My guess is that the default paper type for dvips is set to A4 (this is a common
default for distros ... I couldn't tell you why). So you can temporarily fix
this by doing "dvips -t letter -o paper.ps paper.dvi"

The long term configuration fix is to run texconfig ... just kinda look around
at that guy and choose the dvips configuration option and switch from A4 to letter.

Good luck.
