What is your desired effect? The line above ought to pre-select "B" size
paper in the print dialog.

If you want a "B" sized title block, you should replace the default
title block which is inserted with one of a different size.

For example, in my gschemrc file, I have:

(define default-titleblock "title-bordered-A2.sym")

You might want "title-B.sym" or "title-bordered-B.sym"?
