You cannot directly control "only the print" size when using COPY; use RESIZE to increase the size of the entire document >> be sure the paper onto which you are copying the original is large enough to "contain" the resized data.

 

The User Guide explains the procedure in Chapter 5, page 40.

You are most welcome.

 

As a "side bar", I offer the following:

 

  • You can adjust the print size of most documents to be printed using Print Preview.
  • Print Preview is used in most browsers, document readers, and document editors.

 

See:

Manage Print Output with Print Preview

 

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

 

Have you ever printed a photo and had it "sit funny" on the paper?  Big borders, chopped heads, "just not right"?

  • You might need to adjust the Aspect Ratio of the photo / image before you print it on paper.

 

Do you want to print Passport photos -- at the same size as the original?

  • You can use Paint to print the photos at their original size.

Happy Printing!
