Shaded view lights in drawing

I need to print a 1:1 scale shaded drawing of my model. When modeling, I have set up the lights (Render Tab>Scene>lights) so that the shading of the model is EXACTLY how I need the colors and shadows to look from the front view. However, when I go to the drawing of this part, using the same view, the lighting shadows are completely different.

I am not aware of a way to print 1:1 (precisely) from model space, and I don't know how to adjust the lighting of the shaded view in drawing space.

Any tips? Thank you in advance~

While in the model do a Save-As and save it as a .jpg, then print the .jpg.
Also remember that printers don't print exactly like the monitor looks.
