Welcome to the HP English Community --

 

The printer is not aware of what it is printing, including the size of fonts or other data.

 

The question is perhaps one of "Scale".

 

HP Smart Mobile provides a limited Scale feature -- and only in iPadOS is the "manual" resize option generally available. 

 

Transform / Resize, when  and as available, does not directly address font size though the preview might at least give you a hint how the data will be sized onto the paper.

=======================================

 

What else?

 

If you are printing from your Browser, set the Scale in Print Settings to no more than 100%.

 

If that is not possible, Resize the webpage itself before submitting the page to be printed:

Adjust the size of the viewed webpage to no more than 100%.
