Jim fixed something in this corner, see fix landed in Bug 544950 (which we kept open for some other related nits).
Jim, could you give this a try? Looks like a frequent use case to me...

This needs re-testing, e.g. to see if bug 534083 might have fixed this.

This bug is still present and sucks big time when it happens:
Normally print a msg which happens to have an image attachment in high resolution, and your msg printout is reduced to micro-font garbage with "Shrink to fit". With "100%", msg text will be readable, but image cropped.

Alta88, as you fixed similar bug 534083, could you perhaps look into this?
