Printer prints 50% smaller

It is a computer in an office. It's an Asus with Windows 7, the printer is a Canon MF8400. It prints the images 50% smaller. I tried Ctrl + to zoom in on the page, I try to print, and that did not help. I used Internet Explorer, Chrome, and Firefox. All three give the same result. I even tried to use a printer for Chrome extension, but unfortunately it does not work always on the Web page, I am trying to print. I'm not sure whether the printer or my computer. I would really appreciate any advice or help to solve this problem, because it annoys everyone in the office.

Hello

 
Thank you for visiting Microsoft Community.
 
According to the description, I understand that you are facing problems while printing. I will certainly help you to question.
 
I suggest you follow the steps mentioned below:
 

Method 1:
Change the settings for preview before printing:

Before you print the page, go to the file menu, click Print Preview and select a parameter of size other than "Shrink to fit". For most pages, 100% should work.

 
Note: The information provided in the article below are also applies to Windows 7.
 
 
 
Hope this information helps.
 
Meet us with the State of the question.
 
Sincerely,
Ankit Rajput

  • Microsoft Paint - Image is normal on screen but prints too small?

    Microsoft Paint - Image is normal on screen but prints too small?

    When I'm in the paint all my settings are the same that I use always and my image appears normal size on the screen but when I go to print I put it on the scale to fit on page 1 x 1 (so it's all about a piece of paper), but then I have print preview and the image is just a 1-inch picture in the upper left corner. I had done several times in the past and never had a problem. Why does the image offset? Also when I remove the scale down to 1 x 1 page it can tile the image on 4 pages. So if the image is the great whys it shrinks it do much when I as a single piece of paper? Help!

    Go to the options of paint by clicking on the top left of the menu bar icon (the one to the left of the 'Home' that looks like a sheet of paper lined w / an arrow next to it).  Choose 'Properties' from the menu drop down.  Keys to your measurements of paper (ie. 8.5 x 11 "or 8.5" x 14) depending on the direction you have chosen - portrait or landscape (under print options: Page layout) which should solve your printing problem.  Unfortunately, the program seems to use some default preset every time that you open the Paint program.  That's how I came across your question;  I'm trying to find how to change the default setting. During this time, I guess that we just have to continue to change it before printing.

    My HP PSC 1210 xi all in one printer does not print the small print on a soup Plantation coupon. I was able to print very clearly a letter that I had written and recorded in the notebook. Printing in Notepad is quite small, but it is still much more that the small print in the coupon which wouldn't not print... I printed these coupons several times before without a problem. Also, the small print very clearly appeared on-screen.

    I have downloaded Firefox and IE. With IE, my home page fills the screen and I can adjust the display size (police). Now with Firefox, the homepage (FOX News) is crumpled in the middle with very small print and I can't find hoe to adjust the display.

    You can use an extension to set a page zoom and the size of the default font on the web pages.

    I have a monitor 23 inch and I bought a quad hp computer and now I have to expand my page at 150% to read. I saw more and if I use firefox it print still more small.

    Try using your mouse. Hold down the keyboard CTRL key and move the scroll wheel (the one in the middle) on the mouse to enlarge on the fly. He works for the page web, document, or image.

    Welcome to the Community Forum of HP.

    The provision allowing to adjust font sizes - in most cases, at least - is done at the application level.

    So adjust the display and scale printing, before you send the print to the printer.

    Most applications call this preset Print print preview function: print preview is available in the browsers, editors, and viewers like Adobe Reader documents.

    I'm not at all familiar with the Sumatra PDF Reader - maybe this PDF Reader does not preview before printing?

    Perhaps, if it is available, print preview does not offer the necessary adjustments to allow printing to adjust the scale or the size of the page as appropriate.

    I can offer the following: it may or may not be useful, although it may point you in a direction that helps you to find a solution to your dliemma with your player of Sumatra.

    Manage the print with preview output before printing

    Please, take a look at the section on PDF files.

    At the very least, you can consider the following strategy:

    • Enlarge an area of a page to the screen you need to print
    • Create a Snip of this region
    • Save the capture as an Image
    • Print only necessary as big Snip

  • The printer prints too small fonts when I try to print a Web page.

    My new printer is Photosmart D110a. It is printing documents from Microsoft word, but when I try to print a document on a website, the font is so small that I can't read. How can I adjust the settings of the printer so that the font size is a 12? I don't think I have properly configured wireless controls, but I need to make a cloud of printing or things like that. I'd appreciate any help you can give me.
