Welcome to the HP Community Forum.

The printer does not support paper size A3.

Reference   Printer Specifications for HP Deskjet 3050 Printers

Section Paper Handling > Paper: (plain, inkjet, photo, glossy)

If you are running a recent, supported version of Windows,

If you install the Full Feature Software / full driver printer software,

If the file you want to print is in PDF format,

Try / Consider

Use Adobe Reader DC  to print the file in the size you want using "Poster" setup to print on more than one sheet of paper.

If the file is normally printable at 100% on A4 paper,

Select the Tile Scale to increase the size of the original to the size you want to print.

For example, try Tile Scale = 200 %

Examples - Adobe Reader DC  - Poster Style Print - "Tile" printing
