I do not see that you included your printer model.

If you did so, the post failed to add the information.

You can copy and resize the content you are copying if you have a printer model that supports the Copy > Resize feature.

In general, if your printer includes a full service touchscreen Printer Control Panel as opposed to a small "strip type" control panel, then the printer might include the Copy > Resize option.

How to Copy

 Make copies with an HP printer

Open Section Change paper size and type settings

Steps 1 and 2

If your printer lacks (does not have) the Copy > Resize feature,

Consider

• Scan the content at it's original size
• Save the content to your device (computer, tablet, phone).
• Open and Print the file using an application or software that understands the concept of Scale -- For example, print at "Custom Size" at 110% of original size.

Example - Adobe Reader - PDF - Main Menu 

Section Page Sizing & Handling

Select "Size"

Select "Custom Scale" and enter the percentage of 100% > 110%
