Printing from Android

[mickerick]

Hi all, i have a query about printing.

My wife has a Galaxy A8 with android 11. I have a HP ENVY 6430e Printer.

My wife has downloaded a sewing pattern which states Print at 100%.

She has HP Smart which when trying to print, only gives 2 options. Print Full Page. and Fit to Page. None of which are 100%.

How do i get around this, i am no computer wiz kid so please if possible keep it simple.

Thanks Very Much Mike.

Hi @mickerick,

Welcome to HP Support Community.

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

Sure, I can guide you through the process. Here's a step-by-step guide.

• Download Adobe Acrobat Reader: If you haven't already, download and install Adobe Acrobat Reader from the Google Play Store on your Galaxy A8. This app allows for more precise printing options.
• Open the Pattern PDF: Open the sewing pattern PDF using Adobe Acrobat Reader.
• Select Print: Tap on the three-dot menu icon in the top-right corner of the screen, then select "Print" from the menu that appears.
• Adjust Print Settings: In the print dialog box, you should see options to adjust the print settings. Look for an option that allows you to set the print scale to 100%. This might be labeled as "Actual Size" or "Custom Scale".
• Print: Once you've set the print scale to 100%, proceed with printing by selecting your HP ENVY 6430e Printer from the list of available printers and tapping the print button.

By using Adobe Acrobat Reader, you should have more control over the print settings, allowing you to print the sewing pattern at 100% scale.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have a good day.
