how to override default Print Scaling setting

PDFs that I'm creating establish two print scaling options: Default and None. Default refers to a default scale setting established by an individual user; None prints the document at 100% scale. The PDFs I'm making establish that setting at Default, and a user who wants to select None must do so manually. I would like to change that so that my PDFs establish the default printer scaling to None, but I'm unable to find a way to do that.

I do not see any of those options in the Print UI.

Have you looked at creating custom printers with your scaling options?

What is a "Print UI"? I'm not also not sure what is meant by "custom printers."

I'm looking to alter the default setting for print scaling. I want that done at the level of PDF creation, so that each PDF I make inherently defaults to None for print scaling, rather than "Default" which is a variable depending on settings of each user. In my experience anything that necessitates user action will be ignored more frequently than it is followed. I could manually alter the default setting upon creation of each PDF, but I far prefer to have that automated; and, beyond automated, inherent.

There is no "None" setting. If you set an invalid sizing option, then the scaling is set to "Shrink".
