Have a look at this line:
> D [31/Mar/2004:13:16:28 +0900] [Job 2] 0 %%BoundingBox: 0 0 612 792
"%%BoundingBox: 0 0 612 792" comes out of your postscript file and seems 
to overwrite the cups A5 printer configuration - look at "Form" in call 
of CUPSToOmni:

Try the following: take some applications which can produce postscript 
(mozilla, acroread...). Have a look into the printersettings and change 
the paper format to A5 if possible. Print into file and look for 
"Boundigbox" (grep Boundingbox file). If there is no entry or the entry

print this file via lpr -P printer. Now it must be printed as A5. You 
should see the differences in the log.

After this check out google news and/or cups devel list for similar 
reportings and existing fixes. Cups 1.1.20 is the actual version thus it 
is probable you will find no meaningful hints and you have to send the 
problem in short to the cups developers to let them check out if 
"%%BoundingBox: ..." has to overwrite the printer settings.

Hope this helps!
