A few small comments:

* Instead of forbidding px, define 1px = 1/96in
* similarly, ctx.putImageData should scale to 1px = 1/96in, unless the
image object has embedded resolution information, in which case it
should be honored
* .getImageData should, if possible, produce a raster at the true
printable resolution
* (0,0) should be the top left hand corner of the print area, not the paper
* CMYK opens a huge can of process worms (which the GCPM language you
linked to, doesn't even *begin* to cover); avoid for now
* No matter what the document does, Print Preview needs to be capable of
showing an as-accurate-as-possible WYSIWYG rendition; it's not clear to
me whether this is true in your proposal
