HP Smart -- particularly if you are using the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF) -- tends to put all the scanned pages into one document -- it is the "default" action.

In general, HP Smart scans "at size", though, you can optionally edit the boundaries after the scan and / or using the Edit > Crop feature.

Scan and Save the scanned content.

Print the content at whatever size you want it done.

Example - HP Smart - Windows - Print Photo at Pre-selected Size

HP_Smart_Win_Simple_Photo_Print_Letter_4x6_2

Example - Paint - Simple Poster Print

Paint_Print_Scale_Poster_300_1

Similar - Microsoft / Windows Photos

Example - Photos - Photo / Image Print - Select Size

Photos_Print_Letter-5x7_4

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Next,

If you have the Full Feature Software / full driver printer software installed, you can use a variety of applications of software to print your saved file at the size you want.

Windows

Printer - Full Feature Software

If you have not yet done so, install the Full Feature Software / full driver printer software.

HP Full Feature Software / Full Driver printer software - supports printing and scanning from the web, printing in in other software and programs (for example, Word), and provides access to the full range of Printing Preferences / Shortcuts.  The full driver generally adds at one, possibly least one, possibly two shortcuts to the Desktop: Printer Assistant, HP Scan Assistant, and/or HP Scan.

NOTES:  

HP Scan is not installed if the printer does not support Scan.

The Printer Assistant is not installed if the type of full driver software does not support it.  If the printer model includes built-in Fax hardware, the software supports the setup and use of the Fax driver.

No Sign-in required to use full driver printer software.

Reinstalling?

• Uninstall existing full driver printer software from Programs and Features.
• If your printer includes a separate "help" in Programs and Features, uninstall that, too.
• Restart the computer and log in.
• If the printer is connected to the computer using a printer USB cable, remove / disconnect the cable before loading the software.
