Tiny print size when printing from web

‎05-04-2012 04:00 PM

I have a Windows 7, 64 bit system and use an HP Deskjet 6980dt printer.  Since I started using the Windows 7 system, I often have as problem printing things from the web.  They print in a very tiny size requiring a magnifying glass to read.  Print was a normal size when I used Windows XP.  Does anyone know a solution to this problem?

Hi,

 

Have you tried to use "Print Preview" and adjust "Shrink" option to fit the paper ? Both IE and FF allow you to do this.

 

Regards.

BH

Thank you, BH.  I have not tried that.  I will the next time I have one of those items to print and let you know how it goes.  

 

I just found out that there is an update to my printer which I am hoping may take care of the problem.  I am not sure of that, though, so I am glad to have another option to try.
