The problem is that "scaling=99" is set by default (in printers.conf). This option should not be set at all. If there is no possibility to work with KDE's printer setup tool without this option being set, it is a bug of KDE's printer setup tool. In my printers.conf "scaling=99" is not set, and if I print a job with "-o scaling=99" on the command line it comes out shrinked as you observed.
