Printing a sewing pdf pattern from Android phone, cannot print to scale using Adobe acrobat

[Needhelp31]

Hi I am struggling to print pdf sewing patterns from my android phone, the problem is getting the test square to print at the correct size of 10cm, it is printing at 9.5, there only seems to be 2 options, fill page or fit to page, I have been using fill page.

Where do I find actual size and print at 100% options

I bought the printer specifically so I could print WiFi using my phone

Well, you can certainly use the printer to print from the phone using WiFi.

The full range of features and options for the printer are available using the printing software installed on a computer (Mac / PC).

If there is an app that can print "actual size", it is likely available in the Google Play Store

For example, found in the Google store:

HP Smart (Printer Remote)

The following is a simplified example of how HP Smart works on iPad (sorry, no android to test)

• Install HP Smart
• Open the PDF file to be printed
• Click the settings (on iPad, settings are located in the upper right corner and look like three horizontal lines intersected with tiny zeros)
• Click Resize
• Select "Original Size"
• Click Done (to close the settings)
• Click Print

Hi thanks for reply, I still am not having any luck, 

 I can't locate the horizontal lines with dots that you mentioned

And I cannot tell you where the settings are on Android version of the HP Smart application.

Rats.

You are right - the Android version of  HP Smart looks more like the built-in print function than it does HP Smart.

The settings (three vertical dots)?  and or the method to set the size might be under one of the shapes (circle, box, triangle, for example).

Sorry, I cannot test it for you. 

If you have a friend with an iPhone, you can use that (if you can get them to download the HP Smart app and attach it to your network).

More Rats.
