I'm getting this, too. It's new in feisty.

I've been using evolution to keep track of my wedding invitation
addresses and before upgrading, I had printed out the complete list of
contacts with evo 2.8, which worked like a charm. After upgrading, I
added some new addresses to the list and am finding this new problem.

There are a few things that need fixing:
1) There should be a way to select paper size
2) The renderer should never go outside the paper size's boundaries.
3) shrinking the job by a percentage should increase all margins, not just the right and bottom margins.

If any of those things were implemented, there would be a reasonable
workaround. As such, printing is mostly useless in 2.9.91.

The only way around this seems to be to forward all my contacts to
myself, load them into an evo 2.8 install on an edgy box and print from
there.
