Hi@, Welcome to the HP Support Community!

 

 

I understand that Printer you need to change setting the size to 100% with the Resize setting option..

 

Request you to follow the below troubleshooting steps from the document fix :-

 

This referring Document   How to Copy

 

If you are using software to print, the Scale (size of the print) is controlled in the software used to view and send the job to the printer.

 

 How to > topic Print > subject list Instructions & Settings

Printing Documents (Windows)

How to Print Photos (Windows)

 

   Changing Font Size in Printed Documents or Web Pages

 Print Driver Settings Guide (Windows)

 

If printing from your web browser, settings are found in the print window or perhaps in Page Setup.

 

Examples...

Adjust a full website view before printing the website/document:

 

PC

Ctrl +    (Control key and Plus key at the same time > page contents larger)

Ctrl -     (Control key and Dash key together > page contents smaller)

Ctrl 0    (Control key and 0 (zero) > reset page to Default)

 

 

Examples

 

Firefox > File > [Print] > Print Preview >

Scale: Select Percentage OR Shrink to Fit

Page Setup > tab Format & Options (wording varies)

 

 

Internet Explorer > File > Print Preview >

Shrink to Fit > Fit the page contents to paper

OR

Internet Explorer > File > Page Setup >

UNCHECK Enable Shrink to Fit >>   Set page contents at 100%

 

 

Open Edge browser > open your URL / website > Settings (three dots, upper right) > Print > More Settings

 

 

Chrome > Settings > Print > More Settings

 

  • If margins are left at Default, the print may start 2 inches from the top of the paper >> check!
  • If needful, adjust your margins and/or settings to Fit-to-Width
  • Switch on / off printing of Headers and Footers
  • Depending on your version of Chrome / OS, access Chrome Settings
  • Page Range is controlled in "Print using system dialog..."
