So you have changed the scaling of the diagram. The ruler shows the 
"virtual centimeters" of the diagram objects.

With the page breaks in your screenshot I'd expect two pages of printout. 
If you don't get that it may be either a bug or some additional 
transformation performed within the printer driver.

Yes, unfortunately (BTW: patches accepeted). The scaling (to pages) is done 
by a single scaling factor. You can either enter this factor directly or 
get it calculated with "Fit to n by m [pages]". Using the latter also 
shifts the top left corner of the diagram to start in the top left corner 
of the first page.
