Thanks Fabien,

yes, that what I also found out. 
gambas3 only know "A3","A4","A5","B5","Letter","Executive","Legal", all
others are "Custom" with PaperHeight and PaperWidth set.

I digged deeper and found out, for qt4:

- you can't set paper to 0="Custom" (you get default Paper, here "A4")

- if you write to Printer.PaperHeight and/or Printer.PaperWidth, Paper
  change to 0="Custom"

- after Printer.configure() the printer object knows all his properties,
  as they where made during Printer.configure, but not Printer.NumCopies
  it is reset to 1
