Having just looked up 'caster' in my Chambers Twentieth Century Dictionary (1948 edition), the entry says "see 'Castor'"
A castor (see also caster) is defined as either a small wheel attached to furniture for moving or a container with a perforated lid for pepper etc.
It appears therefore that both spellings are entirely proper.
