You are right, the subject line maybe was not clear. Nevertheless, I think that
scaling is absolutely crucial for printing.

There are documents that need to be printed at 100% scale (e.g. technical
drawings with defined scale). 

Then, there are documents that have another page size defined than the
printer's paper format. Then, one may want to print re-scaled so that it fits
e.g. an A4 page without the margins being lost (e.g. A5, as in the example
above, or "letter" on "A4" paper )

Currently, either okular or some printing component do not handle this properly
and it is impossible to print these document in an acceptable fashion. 

One more example: I tried printing
https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/pdf/eintr.pdf, with 2 pages per
sheet. Result: The top part of the pages is off the paper margin and the pages
are not centred on the sheet, so that I can't read the document.
