Miscalculated spoke length

I entered Specs I thought were right (bad info on my FH M510 hub) into DT s spoke calculator
and ordered my spokes a couple days ago (DT Apline III)

After searching for the specs again I realized the discrepancy and re-entered the correct flange to center measurements. This dropped the right hand spokes from 290 to 289mm.
Do I need to re-order for the right side or will the 290mm spokes be OK?

Full disclosure of info:
Hub Deore fh-M510
Rim Alex DH19 ERD=599.7
Alpine III spokes w/ 12mm brass nipples.
36 spokes 3 cross

Sorry to be a pain, but it's my first rebuild and I'd like to get it right.
