Basically not possible because you can't control the user's system. You
have no idea what their printer properties are, their page size, any
font overrides in effect - and a whole bunch of other things.

If you need to control how something is printed more than just what the
browser's print button gives you, I suggest you create a PDF and let the
user download and print that.
