Hey @S3dnnie,
Thank you for the information! 🙂
Let's try the following steps:
• (1) Load legal size paper in your printer's paper tray
• (2) Click on your Start button
• (3) Open Devices and Printers
• (4) Right click on your Deskjet
• (5) Left click on Printing Preferences
• (6) Click on the Paper/Quality tab
• (7) Select Advanced on the bottom right
• (8) Under the Paper Size drop-down select Legal
• (9) Click OK
• (10) Select Apply and OK on the Printing Preferences box
Now that the driver has been set to Legal, test printing. 🙂
