However, once it's loaded, the Print Preview button gives me the option of shrinking pages by a percentage, but not 'shrink-to-fit'; and it's not clear if that applies to the actual printing, or just to the previewing.

Seems it's only the preview.
I don't have letter, but I tried printing A4 on A5:
Loaded pdf in kpdf -> preview -> 50% Print -> Laserjet 4200 -> A5 -> manual feeder -> print is OK
Loaded pdf in kpdf -> preview -> 100% Print -> Laserjet 4200 -> A5 -> manual feeder -> print is OK
So this setting in preview has no effect on my printer. Printing from kpdf with the correct size _does_ shrink my print correctly. Maybe that's because A5 is exactly half A4? Or Laserjets are superPrinters (they are :)
