The printer doesn't have a control panel. I use the HP Smart App, but the only way I can find to enlarge is by cropping. If I need to resize 2 separate copies, I don't have a way to enlarge them each by the same amount.

Welcome to the HP Community --

 

True - Printers of this type lack a full function touchpad Printer Control Panel.

For example,

  • Copy is plain old copy - no extras
  • Scan -- if it is on the printer panel at all, scan is plain old scan - no extras

 

Your best option is to scan the content > save it to your device > Print it at the size you want it.

 

Depending on the tools you have available, the Resize task is much more accurate in a Windows environment than in a Mobile setting.

 

What? 

 

Windows provides applications and software to print your file content at any size you want.

What you do simply depends what you want and which software you use. 

There are lots of options in Windows.

 

HP Smart - Mobile - scans follow the Page Size and prints tend to follow the paper size  That said, you can check in the apps store for your Mobile device for an application that can "Print at selected size".

 

HP Smart - Mobile - prints might be resized (depending on the content type) - if / where available, exact sizing can be difficult to impossible to control.

 

A few Windows Examples

 

HP Smart - Windows - Print Photo at Selected Size on large paper

Adobe Reader - PDF Print - Poster

Paint - Image / Photo print - Simple Poster (No cut lines available)
