Hi @dblair1939,
Welcome to the HP Support Community!
Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding incorrect print size!
We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.
Try these steps:
Check Print Settings:
- Open the document you are trying to print and go to the print dialog box.
- Ensure the paper size is set to 8.5 x 11 inches (US Letter) and that any scaling options are set correctly.
Update Printer Drivers:
- Visit the HP website to download and install the latest drivers for the HP 8025e that are compatible with Windows 11.
- Often, outdated drivers can lead to printing issues.
Check Printer Preferences:
- Go to "Devices and Printers" on your computer and right-click on your HP 8025e printer.
- Select "Printer Properties" and navigate to "Preferences" or "Printing Preferences."
- Check the settings for paper size and scaling there as well.
Clear Printer Queue:
- Sometimes, printing issues are due to print jobs stuck in the queue. Clear any pending print jobs from the queue.
Perform a Printer Reset:
- Turn off your printer, unplug it for a minute, then plug it back in and turn it on. This can sometimes resolve minor glitches.
Print from Different Software:
- Try printing from another application or software to see if the issue persists. This can help determine if the problem is specific to one program.
Check for Firmware Update:
- Ensure that the printer's firmware is up to date, as updates may fix printing issues.
I hope this helps.
