No, it can't be dvips. Since 2.6, lily doesn't go via tex/dvi, so dvips is 
never invoked. The .ps file is created directly, so this must be a problem 
specific to lily.

I don't know anything about letter size papers, since I only have used a4 
myself. But IIRC, there is an example in regression tests, which demonstrates 
how page sizes can be completely customised.
