I'd like to investigate this. Nedret and Georg respectively: can you  
provide a URL please?

Georg, I'm not sure what you mean by "trimming to size". Most times, a  
non-fluid over-wide page will be truncated on the right (which can't be  
what you mean, but that is literally what trimming means). Both Gecko  
(e.g. Firefox) and Opera can scale a page when printing, if you tell them  
to. The third possibility is fluid adjustment, with text wrapping, but  
even IE can do that ...

Meanwhile, I leave you with the Wiki page if you haven't already seen it:-
