Use CSS, and use length units of mm (or points for font sizes).
Normally we always advocate using length units of ems for "fluid
design" on screen, but this sort of printing application is where it's
appropriate to use these absolute units.
You can't control the print margins of where a web pages' canvas is
placed on the paper. Nor can you control the paper size selected for
printing. You need to have the user set this manually in their
browser. If they're using IE though, MeadCo's ScriptX ActiveX control
can set this for you automatically.
