Printing options from answer printer

In the answer printer dialog on Mac OS X there is a Paper Handling  
option check box for "Scale to fit paper size". How can I tell if the  
user selected that option? When I "get the printerFeatures" it only  
returns "collate,copies" from the entire dialog.

If I know the user selected scale... then I can use the print card  
into x,x,x,x statement.

Is this a missing feature of Rev or is there some other way to get it?

On the Mac the dialog doesn't include paper orientation like some  
other programs do. For example, Mail.app has no Page Setup menu item  
but includes those options in the Print dialog. It looks like that is  
the direction Apple is going with printing.
