Welcome to the HP English Community --

 

No - The printer cannot make the scanned content smaller.

 

Reference

 User Guide - HP DeskJet 2700e All-in-One series

Page 51 - Copy and scan

 

What to do?

 

Scan and save the content at size.

 

General Example - HP Smart - Windows - Scan and Save

HP_Smart_Win_Scan_Photo_Save_3HP_Smart_Win_Scan_Photo_Save_3

 

Next,

1)  Print the content at the size you want

OR

2)  Reduce the size of the saved file

 

===================================

Details and Examples - FYI Only

 

 

The first option is more perhaps a better solution for mid or low density scans (content scanned at 300 dpi or less) or older content (for example, old photographs).

 

General Example - HP Smart - Windows - Simple Photo Print - Smaller Print on Larger Paper

HP_Smart_Win_Simple_Photo_Print_Letter_4x6_2HP_Smart_Win_Simple_Photo_Print_Letter_4x6_2

 

General Examples - Irfanview (Windows) - Custom Print Size

Irfanview_Custom_Print_Size_cm_1Irfanview_Custom_Print_Size_cm_1Irfanview_Custom_Print_Size_4Irfanview_Custom_Print_Size_4

 

==================================================

 

The second option is (at least) available in supported versions of Windows using an appropriate Photo Edit and Print software.

 

General Examples - Irfanview (Windows) - Resample - Resize

Irfanview_Print_Image_Resize_Resample_4Irfanview_Print_Image_Resize_Resample_4
