Look into your printer's PPD for "Fit to Page " or something similar.
For instance, most HP printers provide:
---snip---
*HPPaperPolicy PromptUser/Benutzer auffordern: "
   <</DeferredMediaSelection true>> setpagedevice"
*End
*HPPaperPolicy NearestSizeAdjust/N<e4>chstes Format mit Skalierung: "
   <</DeferredMediaSelection false /Policies << /PageSize 3 >> >>
setpagedevice"
*End
*HPPaperPolicy NearestSizeNoAdjust/N<e4>chstes Format mit Beschnitt: "
   <</DeferredMediaSelection false /Policies << /PageSize 5 >> >>
setpagedevice"
*End
---snip---
Then use
	HPPaperPolicy=NearestSizeAdjust
as a job attribute.

PS: What I use to do is to select this option as a default via the web
configuration.
