Please?

Or some other way to streamline the sadly manual process of printing an architechtural to-scale drawing on (non-architechtural) paper?

Thanks.

Hi.

What I do to get my drawing to "fill" the printed page; save as PDF - use pdeviewer to print the page using "fit to page".
This might (or might not) work for you - depending on your requirement.

Another method is to group all objects, enable snap to page borders and manually re-size the group until it "snaps" in place.

Useful workarounds - thanks.

My first attempt was to use the HP printer driver "Fit to page" but that fails to operate on Inkscape, though it work on other apps.

Thanks, but the requirement is fit selection to page, not fit page to selection - I don't have paper large enough for a house at scale!

Scale the whole drawing to have the exact dimensions you want it to be on the paper, then add a rectangle, with the exact dimensions of your "wish to be printed on" paper size, then fit the canvas size to the well positioned rectangle when selected. That rectangle can be used as a background image if you have a line drawing and want the design to have a non-transparent background.
