If the font size from the printer is smaller than on your screen then you need to adjust the font in the print options/advanced tab. The font rint out is defaulted to either 8 or 10. Go to Print Preview...Print options and go to the advanced tab and set print font size to Scale for A4 paper.

It sounds like you are printing to postcard size paper.

I just want to be able to enlarge my print size

  • Simply press and hold down the "control" key, while pressing the "plus sign" key. Be sure to keep the "control key" depressed while you press the "plus sign" key. Each repetition will enlarge the text. This can make reading small text SO much easier!
  • To return the text back to its original size (being polite to the next user), simply press, and hold down the "control" key and the "minus sign" key. Each repetition will decrease the text size

  • Log on to your computer and open the document you want to print. Click on the "Print Preview" button on the toolbar.
  • 2 Click on the "File" menu and choose "Print Preview" from the drop-down list if the "Print Preview" button is not available. The "Print Preview" function will show you exactly what the finished print will look like.
  • 3 Click the "Close" button to close the Print Preview window, then highlight the entire document and click on the "Format" menu. Choose "Font" from the drop-down list and change the font.
  • 4 Click the "Print Preview" button again to see the finished print. Continue to adjust the font size until the print looks good

    I have tried every thing that i could with out sucsess to enlarge the printer font size on my documents i can't hardly read them thay are so small.

    If you are trying to print emails directly, you must change font size in Internet Explorer options for font size which controls email print size in Outlook Express. You may copy to a Word doc to control fonts there.

    How do I enlarge a page so I can read it? When printing something from the internet, how do I enlarge the print? I have printed a pattern and cannot read it.

    There's no option to enlarge the font or text of what you are printing from the Internet. What you need to do is to copy the page that you would like to print and then paste it in a Word document.

    From the Word document, there's an option for you to change the font size and color.

    Have a great day!

    I need to know how to enlarge the print size on my HP printer. No matter how large the print is on the document I am going to print, it is always very, very small when it is printed . I guess I need to...

    You don't say what printer you're using, but in most, there are several ways for you to print. Look for settings on your printer's properties or PREFERENCES that specify whether to allow Windows or your printer to take control of how it prints. It would appear that Windows is NOT currently in control, but your printer. Try looking for settings that read more or less: Actual Size, Fit to page, or % of actual page. Here you may have the cause of your problem. Experiment with the first one, that sounds like what you need.
    Good luck!

    How do i increase print size

    Your font and font size are set up in word. Depinding what version of word you are useing as to where this option is. If you look at the top of word screen, you should see a box that lists the font and font size. If you can't find it, go to help and type change font size and it will walk you through how to change your font size.
