In looking at the source for FlexPrintJob, if the thing you are printing isn't the main app, then the currently size of the thing is used to compute how to scale to fill the page, but after that, validateNow() is called. If the thing you print computes to a different size that is too large for the page then it will split the page. So step into it again and watch how the width/height is computed and handled and see if it changes on the validateNow() calls.
Regarding alpha, I think if the thing you print has alpha < 0, you actually want to print the parent of that thing.
