HP Printers - How to Scan (Windows, Mac, Mobile) | HP® Customer Support
The size of the scan content, particularly if printed while still within the application that just scanned the data, is likely to follow the size of paper used to print that content.
This is only a "problem" if you want the data printed at a different size.
Save the scanned content - then print at the size you want.
Windows

===============================
Once saved, it is possible using HP Smart (or Photos) to print the saved .jpg photo / image file at an available pre-selected size on the paper you are using to print the file.
Example - HP Smart - Windows - Print at Selected Size
HP_Smart_Win_Simple_Photo_Print_Letter_4x6_2
===============================
Paint can be used to print image files (or scans) at other than 100%. That said, if you want Paint to print at a particular size, you need to calculate the percentage of 100% to print at the chosen size.
Example - Paint - Print Photo -
Note: Select Scaling = Adjust to and enter percentage of 100%
Band_Tails_Paint_Page-Setup_1
===============================
Print Pictures (save content to image file > Right-Click on file > Print) can print content on your selected paper at a number of pre-selected sizes -- the app can also print more than one photo on the paper, an array of the photo, or a selection of different photos arrayed and duplicated.
Example - Print Pictures - Array
Note - Select just one picture > adjust the options > select the size from the right column
Print_Pictures_Multiple-Photos-on-One-Sheet-of-Paper_1
===============================
If the scanned data is saved as a PDF file,
If the Full Feature Software is installed,
Optionally use Adobe Reader DC to print the file at any selected percentage of 100%
General Example - Adobe Reader DC - Print PDF
PDF_Reader_Main_Menu_Border_6
===============================
If the Full Feature Software is installed,
Optionally install third party print software to print the image at any size you want on your selected paper.
Example: Irfanview software

The installation of the full driver generally adds at least one, possibly two shortcuts to the Desktop.
Note: Printer Assistant, HP Scan Assistant, and HP Scan are dependent on printer model and supported software options.
