Welcome to the HP English Community --

 

Unfortunately, the question is nearly impossible to answer without any context.

 

What / If / How you can adjust the document scale depends on several factors --

For example,

Product / Printer Model:  ?

Operating System / version?

Software / Application?

Connection Type:  ?

Content / File Type?

Paper Size / Type: ?

Job type?

 

For example,

COPY is a function of the printer.  If the printer supports the option, use Resize to adjust the scale of the copied content. 

 

If COPY does not include a Resize option,

Scan the content at original size > Save as PDF or Image > Open in the appropriate application / software > Print at size wanted / available.

 

Scale is a function of the application or software.  If the app / software supports a Scale / percentage of 100% print option, adjust the Scale before submitting the job. 

 

Browser printing also (sometimes) includes Scale in Print Settings.

 

Scale adjustments also depend on the source (browser, application, software) and the type of content.

 

General Example - Windows

HP Smart - (content scanned at size and saved)

Open saved Image / Photo content and print in HP Smart / Microsoft Photos / Print Pictures / Photo Editing software

or

Open saved PDF content in Adobe Reader and Print at any size wanted
