Well, let me apologize for even posting that question. I got it to produce smaller output by asking for a font-size of 6pt. So it is recognizing the css for the printer after all -- it's just that the 12- point font my printer produces is rather bigger than what I'm used to calling twelve-point. I get about 54 lines to the page, measured top edge to bottom edge of an standard 11-inch page. With 72 = 6x12 points to the inch, I'd expect to get 6 lines to the inch, giving me 66 lines altogether. I suspect I'm ignoring details like the space between lines. Evidently I could still learn a few things about typography.
