Printed fonts are different from the typed fonts

1) If you feel your printer is printing only small-sized labels, then you can try changing the font size.

2) If you are printing from a computer, then go to the paper settings that appear in the print preview window.

3) You will see a paper type or a paper settings option available in the window. Since it is a small-sized printer, you will only get prints in small size.

AOL Mail is an email service provided to the customers of American Online as well as Web users.

When you print an email using AOL Mail software, you may notice that the font size either appears too small or too large.

AOL Mail gives you the flexibility to adjust the font size and thus, the size of the print.

Note that these instructions apply to AOL 9.0 or higher.

If you have an old edition, follow instructions from the link specified under Resources.

Launch your AOL Mail software from the Start menu or desktop shortcut.

Log in using your AOL screen name and password.

Click "Settings" on the top bar.

Click "Font and Text."

Click the font type drop-down menu to choose either a larger or smaller font type than the current one.

Click the font size drop-down menu to choose either a larger or smaller font size based on your preference.

Click "Save."

Hope this helps

try changing the manufacturer and model type to *ibm2390.

iterry,
The font size is controlled by the application, whether it be MS Word, Excel, or whatever.
If it is Microsoft Word, then:
1. Open a document
2. Select [Select All] from the [Edit] menu option
3. All text is now highlighted.
4. [Format] [Font]
5. Select the font Size, etc.
6. Print it out.
You may not want to "save" this document.
Do the same for other documents, etc.

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.

1. either the font size on you pc is small but as you see in zoom it appears big to you.
2. or there is problem with your print settings, try different setting and print, e.g. fit to page, must check print preview to get an idea of how much matter on how much paper.

Hope this helps
must rate me or ask if more questions.

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.

Just maybe it is the size of the original e-mail and your monitor makes it appear larger. The way  that I do it is to copy and past the email into a word processor,like WORD, then set the type font to the size that I want before printing, then print from that file  

Hi,I have a doubt, whether the perview is good and only the print out is bad or both are bad.
Anyway i am giving solutions for both.
The Statement or Report Looks Fine When Previewed, but Looks Bad When Printed If the appearance of the statement or report when printed differs from its appearance when previewed, this may indicate a problem with the printer driver (such as corruption of the driver files). Make sure you are using the most current version of the correct printer driver for the operating system on your computer. For example, a printer driver for an OkiData MicroLine 390 for Windows 98 may not work well at all when printing from Windows XP.

1. If you need to check for a different printer driver, begin by checking the installation disk or CD-ROM that was provided with your printer.
2. If you can't find the driver you need on the installation media provided by your printer's manufacturer, check the CD-ROM from which your operating system was installed (i.e., your Windows CD-ROM).
3. If you can't find the driver you need on your Windows CD-ROM, or if you need to try an updated version of the driver you are currently using, check your printer manufacturer's Web site.my.okidata.com/pp-ML521.nsf/openingdrivermenu?OpenFrameSet

The Statement or Report Looks Bad Whether Previewed or Printed There are many factors that can contribute to undesirable printed output, such as margins, fonts, and custom paper sizes. Use the following steps to troubleshoot this problem.

• Try using a different font size. See if there is a separate font size available for the same font family (e.g., 15 cpi vs.10 cpi).
• Try adjusting the page margins and printer offset adjustments in the Page Setup window.
• Check the printer driver properties to determine if a custom paper size is specified. If not, you may need to specify one. For example, when printing checks that have only one stub, you may need to set up a custom paper size of 8.5 inches wide by 7 inches tall. Conversely, if a custom paper size is incorrectly selected, printed output of reports and statements may be adversely affected.
• In the Advanced Printing Features window, select the Optimize for Print to File check box and clear all other options and check boxes.
• Try temporarily renaming the STI.INI file and restarting the Tabs3 or PracticeMaster program. The STI.INI file holds all of the printer settings. If this helps, you may have to recreate the margins, font selections, and other settings used for printing since that information is stored in the STI.INI file. If this does not help, delete the new STI.INI file and rename the original file back to STI.INI.
• Is the printer configured to emulate another type of printer? Consult the printer's manual and/or the printer manufacturer's Web site to determine if the printer is able to emulate another type of printer such as an IBM Proprinter. If you have tried all of the internal fonts available in the printer's current configuration, it may be beneficial to configure the printer to emulate a different type of printer and then install the corresponding printer driver. Then you can test each of the internal fonts available in the new driver.
• Once your printing issue has been resolved, check the printed output to ensure that lines are not wrapping or breaking when they should not. Make sure the margins all appear correct.
• When you are satisfied that the printed output is completely correct, be sure to look at a preview of the same print job, to ensure that the preview is legible. For some printer drivers and fonts, it may be necessary to make a second installation of the printer that uses TrueType fonts. This second installation would then be selected whenever you need to preview reports or statements, and the original installation would be used for the actual printing.

Hope my info solves your problem,
Thanx for using fixya.
