Printing: Chrome rendering font size different than Firefox

Reported by kumarena...@gmail.com, Dec 7 2016

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/55.0.2883.75 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Go to a webpage
2. In chrome, open dev tools -> Rendering -> Emulate CSS Media (choose print)
3. The font size renders as expected
4. Right click on page and select print
5. Print preview reduces size of the font by a factor (or so)
6. Open the same page in Firefox and go to print preview
7. Renders font as expected

What is the expected behavior?

What went wrong?
Chrome not rendering font size as expected in print preview mode

Did this work before? No 

Does this work in other browsers? N/A

Chrome version: 55.0.2883.75  Channel: stable
OS Version: 10.0
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 23.0 r0

I have a separate print.css that loads in print mode. Chrome does the hiding of headers and footers, but is does not render font at required size defined in the print.css file
