Open it in any program like photo viewer, paint, or something, and go CTRL+P, select your printer from the print menu and print :3

11cm x 8cm is pretty tiny

There should at least be an option somewhere to choose how it will print out, and one should be default size

I don't know the precision you are expecting, but when I want to quickly print something with a specific size, I open a new document (M$ Word or Open Office) then I insert the image and I resize it. Eventually I print the document and I check if it went right. I is very useful when you have to print several badges on a sheet of paper for a little meeting.

If you try to print a normal text (doc or odt file) do you succeed to obtain the same thing than original page. If it is not the case (for example a print which have a different scale than the original document) the issue may come from the printer settings...
