Getting the printing size right

Hello, It's bothering me long enough ever since I started using easyeda that my printed boards become huge and have to fiddle around with the Width parameter to get the size just about right. Here is what I mean: I make a pcb 80mm x 75mm. In the coordinate system I put the upper low korner of the board to 0,0 so it makes it easy to see the exact size. Then I try to print out the file as image with black on white background and I got a huge image. Actually what I see on my monitor is what I will get on the printed paper exactly so there is no problem with the printer driver here. So for my projects so far I was experimenting with always using different Width parameters at the final image export and see how it scales down. For example use width 490 for a board like this and it will come out just about right, if not try 385, 495 to see if it shrinks or grows. Another problem is with this fiddling around is that it's not scaling everything down properly. For example if I put in an Arduino nano socket, couple of jumper pins and relays. It might scales most of the components down the right size (so I can print the paper out and actually place them over) but the arduino pins get shrinked so much that it becomes useless. Any solution for this? Thank you!

Hello, https://easyeda.com/normal/wrtg-66aaafef219f4b9380f49fa1a2629898 And here is what I get if I print it with "Actual Size". Regardless if I print it as pdf or an image: https://ibb.co/dqkt8v Thanks

Please check that you have set your local pdf printer driver to print 1:1.
