The scaling for axes X,Y and Z that I specify in the procedure scale3 is overridden. I don't understand why? Could someone point out what is wrong with my code?
The width of a box is n1/2-1(~128 points) and it is more than the height(98 points).
n1=257
n2=257
n3=98

set_plot,'Z'

Do you mean mean the display is anisotropic? Just add:
device, set_resolution=[500, 500]
after you change to the Z-buffer device. This is what I get:
