So do you have something like this in vimrc 

" Set paper size from /etc/papersize if available (Debian-specific)
try
  if filereadable('/etc/papersize')
    let s:papersize = matchstr(system('/bin/cat /etc/papersize'), '\p*')
    if strlen(s:papersize)
      let &printoptions = "paper:" . s:papersize
    endif
    unlet! s:papersize
  endif
catch /E145/
endtry

Thank you
Russell
