Adjusting size and print quality i have office jet 8025e all in one

[Flower7733]

I  am printing flower pictures. When I printed recently i could scale the photo down or up and adjust the quality of the picture. It has been a little while since I printed and I cant get to that area of the print feature to make these adjustments.

Hi @Flower7733,

Welcome to HP Support Community.

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

Adjusting the size and print quality of your photos on an HP OfficeJet 8025e All-in-One printer can significantly enhance the appearance of your printed pictures. Here's a step-by-step guide on how you can make these adjustments, typically through your computer:

For Windows Users

Open the Photo or Document You Want to Print

• Use an application like Microsoft Photos, Adobe Photoshop, or another image viewer/editor that supports printing.

Print Command

• Press Ctrl + P or navigate to File > Print in your application to open the print dialog.

Select Printer

• Ensure that your HP OfficeJet 8025e is selected as the printer.

Printer Properties/Preferences

• Click on Preferences or Properties to open more detailed settings for your printer.

Adjust Print Quality

• Look for a tab or section labeled Quality, Paper/Quality, or similar. Here, you can select higher DPI settings for better quality prints, such as "Best" or "High".

Adjust the Size and Scaling

• In the same dialog, look for a section named Effects, Advanced, or Finishing.
• Here you can find scaling options where you can choose to print at actual size, fit to page, or a custom scale percentage.

Apply Settings and Print

• Once you've made your adjustments, click OK to save your settings, then Print to start printing.

For macOS Users

Open the Photo or Document

• Use Preview or another image viewer/editor.

Print Command

• Press Command + P or navigate to File > Print.

Select Printer

• Ensure the HP OfficeJet 8025e is the chosen printer.

Show Details

• Click on Show Details to expand the print options if they're not already visible.

Adjust Print Quality and Scale

• Under the dropdown menus, look for options related to scaling and quality. Mac interfaces vary slightly by OS version but generally have clear labels for print quality adjustments.
• You can set scaling directly under the preview image or in the dropdown menu options.

Print

• Adjust your settings and click Print.

Additional Tips

• Update Printer Drivers: Ensure your printer drivers are up-to-date, as this can sometimes restore missing options or enhance functionality.
• Check Ink Levels: High-quality prints require sufficient ink levels, especially if you’re printing in color.
• Use Appropriate Paper: For photos, using glossy or matte photo paper can dramatically improve the quality.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have a good day.
