Tiny print when i try to print off an e-mail the print is so small, i need a magnifying glass, however if i print from documents using Word, then no problem,so any ideas as how to rectify problem, i have had the printer for about 2 years and has worked perfectly before.all other aspects of the printer are working ok.

we dont set up your printer --go to settings and adjust your font size

Hi Albert:
Several choices:
1) Use a magnifying glass. Seriously, I do this very often.
2) If in print, copy it as a photo and e-mail it to yourself. Then open it, click on fix, crop, isolate the part you want, and print it on 8 1/2 X 11 . I do this for house plans or mower belt routing or ????
Cheers.

are you printing a windows office documents or documents from the web?

Go get you a jewelers loupe that magnifies 6x or 10x. Then you can read the print on the box or you can get a magnifying glass for reading small text.

No users guide can be printed because you don't provide a model # for your phone or what brand it is.

mcdevito75 here, You"ll need a magnifier glass, available at any Dollar store, even with instructions online if found lettering could be too small, and with a no name watch, most likely impossible. Use a magnifier glass.

Silly daft me, never usually change the setting on the scanner, and didn`t know that having left a folder on top of the scanner the other day it must have nudged the setting and altered it.

Settings are quite tiny and it was dark and the room not very well lit where the printer is, so it was trial and elimination and only after pratically looking through a magnifying glass sorted it.

Alls ok now, thanks for asking.

I think, you have selected the Fix to Page option in Print Preferences. You have to change this option.

In the Print Preferences, select the "Print at Actual Size" option.

Hope after this, you will get your problem solved.

Hi, my name is adam. I am pretty sure what you are describing is a common problem. Before you print you need to go to print setup or print preview and change the zoom settings so that when it prints it can be zoomed to where you can see it clearer.

To resolve this, try the following actions:

* Check the default fonts within Microsoft Windows.
* Select your entire document and set it to a larger font.
* Make sure all your fonts are loaded properly.
* Change the resolution to quick print at 600 dpi. To do so:

1. Click Start, Settings, Printers.
2. Right click the Lexmark printer icon and choose Properties.
3. Choose the Document/Quality tab and set the resolution to 600 dpi quick print/draft.

* Change the Spool Data Format to RAW. To do this:

1. Click Start, Settings, Printers.
2. Right click the Lexmark printer icon and choose Properties.
3. Select the Details tab and click Spool Settings.
4. In the Spool Settings screen, set the Spool Data Format to RAW.
5. Click OK and then Apply.

Fonts and sizes are typically controlled by the application you are using. Are you sure you are increasing the font size? I've had some users confused by the zoom feature which is more like a magnifying lens. It just makes thing larger for viewing purposes and does not affect the print size. To change the actual font size of a document already created you would first highlight the text in the document. In Word (other applications are similar) you would then select Format from the main menu bar, then select Font. In the next box that appears you would click on the Font tab, and then in the Size field select a larger font size. After that click on OK and you should see your font size change. Let us know if that was your problem or not.
