What happened when I printed it, it printed the full length and just over half of the width. I would trace the full half, turn it around and trace it again on the other side. So far it's worked fine for me.
This is also what I did. I just enlarged it and got what would fit within the narrowest margins on my printer. I draw a light set of center lines & match them up with the copy. pin down & trace away. Unpin, turn it around, re-pin & comlete the drawing. Works great & I don't need to go anywhere special.
