hp officejet 9020
Microsoft Windows 11

When installing the printer drivers for my OfficeJet Pro 9025, HP installed a SCAN utility with an icon on the desktop.  When I run the program, the TYPE IS SO SMALL, I CAN HARDLY READ IT.    They have the complete screen to put up a FORM with text and information to enter.  They decide to make the screen about 5x7 inches.  WHAT IS UP WITH THIS GARBAGE?   

 

Seriously HP.  Really?

Welcome to the HP Community.

 

This result is perhaps a result of having a super-high resolution on your computer.

Some software / programs have not been rewritten to handle the higher resolution settings on newer computers.

 

If you do not wish to lower the resolution on the computer,

Consider: Use  Magnify for any program whose GUI is not written to accommodate the higher resolutions.

No, not ideal.

 

Example - Windows Magnify / Magnifier

Magnifier_2Magnifier_2

 

 

What else?

 

You could try using HP Scan and Capture

The menu / window is adjustable (pull the corners to adjust the size)
