MusicTeacher Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Hi, my document is set at 8.5”x11” with three 4”x6” images but when I print everything is miniaturized. The screen shows the images as 4”x6” but they are printing more like 1.5”x3”. I’ve printed several documents to my other printer with no issues but I cannot figure out how to make it print accurately to my HP Envy 4500 and I need to finish this project this weekend.

Could it be an issue with your printer settings? Like you might have ‘fit to screen’ checked (think that’s what it’s called). If it’s the setting I’m thinking of, sometimes it has the effect of shrinking objects you’re printing Dan C 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MusicTeacher Posted July 26, 2020 Author Share Posted July 26, 2020 Hi Dan. I missed your reply. This is what it looks like. The screen is sent to print 8 1/2”x11” and fill the page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Dan C Posted July 27, 2020 Staff Share Posted July 27, 2020 Thanks for that, can you also provide a screenshot of your print settings when sending the document from the app?

MusicTeacher Posted July 27, 2020 Author Share Posted July 27, 2020 I’m not near my printer so is not registered right now but it doesn’t give me any print options, even when the printer is selected. I tried to print another one to see if I had just made a mistake in this document but the other one printed shrunken as well. The bottom of the second image shows the document size, in case it cut off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What size does the preview show on screen when the printer is 'selected'. Full size or half size? Dan C 1 Quote M1 IPad Air 10.9/256GB lpadOS 17.1.1 Apple Pencil (2nd gen).

MusicTeacher Posted July 28, 2020 Author Share Posted July 28, 2020 The print preview looks full size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DM1 Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 I printed out my version and got full size. Maybe it is printer related? I know I had an issue with my old Epson photo XP850 printing half size but I have since replaced it with the Epson ET 3700. Now it’s all good.
