Photosmart 6515 prints too small

I have a Mac book Pro and lately when I try to print a document from the internet is prints bits and pieces of the page over several pages and very small print.  For example, I tried to print a boarding pass today and it printed parts of it over 4 pages.  How do I fix this?  Thanks.

First of all, I apologize you are having issues. I would start by performing a hard reset. This is leaving the printer on and unplugging the power cord for thirty seconds.

  • Print too small to read

    New HP Officejet J4580

    Prints too small.  When I disable shrink to fit to after enlarging font, it cuts off text.
    How to print larger?

    I use a Compaq laptop computer, belong to Frontier.Com and TRY to print on C3180 All In One.  It was working fine, but now
    when I print emails, the printing font is SO SMALL I can bearly read it.  How do I increase this?
      I do NOT have this problem when printing something from Internet other than email.
     HP has not given me any help that works so far.

  • Print too small, tried everything (I think..)

    Hi
    I recently installed the driver for this printer from the HP site and replaced some empty ink cartridges. So, printer now prints.
    Trouble is, whatever I do in Preferences, or in Word, Acrobat, anything, the page prints too small and centred. The setting in preferences is A4
    When I ask the printer to print the TEST pages, i.e the 'Self Test Diagnostic Page' and 'Print Quality Diagnositcs Page' they are both perfect and the correct size.
    I am using an older version of Mac OS (10.4.....) but not had trouble before.
    Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks.

    Hi @migrations 
    If I am not mistaken, you need to increase the font size within the program you are printing from. Be sure not to increase the zoom, the font size needs to be larger for the print size to be increased.
    You may also see a scale to option, or fit to page, in the print preview, this might help too.

  • Anything printed with firefox prints too small

    anything printed with firefox prints too small. If I print and email it prints in the center top of the page and is just larger than a credit card. if I adjust the scale to 100% the it prints what could fit on one page onto 4 pages and prints a small portion in the center top of the page and is just larger than a credit card.

    Ok i think i fixed this issues.
    i went to about:config print.print_margin_bottom (and also left, right and top) and right clicked reset (it took out the previous 0.5 value). now the pages look normal on print preview without the large margin

  • Yosemite Apple Mail prints too small

    After Yosemite upgrade the body of text in Apple Mail messages prints extremely small. 2 Printers tested - HP Laserjet 5100tn and a Konica Minolta 5500 with a Fiery controller. Printing to a PDF file first is OK.
    This only seems to occur when I print messages that I've sent or when I print a message where someone has replied to a message that I sent previously. Only the body of the messages that I sent prints too small. The From, Subject, Date, To, My signature, and anything from messages that have been sent to me from someone else are all OK. In messages that were replies to me from messages that I sent to others, everything is OK except the body of the message that I originally sent to that individual.

    I have had this issue as well and have not really been able to resolve it. Yosemite Mail app doesn't seem to have the option that previous OS did where you could choose "Scale Message to Fit," "Rewrap Message to Fit," etc.
    Am I missing something here or did they disable this option?  I know I can change font or increase font size in preferences, but I don't really need to increase font size for display, only for printing, which seems to be very tiny no matter what I try to do.

  • Print Too Small from Photoshop CS4 with HP 8500 All In One Printer

    I'm running Windows XP with CS4 and latest patches and drivers.  When I print an image to my HP 8500 All in one printer, the printout is too small.  Instead of a centered 4 x 6 image on the page I get a 1 x 1-1/4 inch small print of the image in the upper left hand corner.
    I re-installed CS3 and it works perfectly as do any other print options, such as word, etc.  But from Photoshop CS4 I can find no way to print to this printer without the image shrinking in size.  If I print to another printer at the same sitting, the image is fine.  So it's a PS CS4 vs. HP 8500 unique problem I guess.
    I've see this post in other forms and no help as yet.  Does anyone have this one on their radar.  I really like this printer, but it's quite annoying.
    By the way, If I print to a PDF from PS CS4, the pdf file image is fine.  That's another end around for printing also. HMMMM.
    I did contact HP and they put the problem squarely back on Adobe.  No partnership there.
    Thanks,
    Glen

    Will the printer print from any app?
    I know it sounds like a dumb question, but you didn't actually say...  And I admit to looking for software problems on an occasion or two when I had forgotten to plug in cables.

  • Photosmart C6180 prints too many copies of PDFs and HTML-documents

    Hi,
    My Photosmart C6180 prints multiple copies of documents even if I haven't asked for it. This seems to only apply to PDFs and HTML-documents, I haven't seen it happen with Word/Excel. It's not consistent, it happens most of the time but now always for these documents. When I look at the console, when it has started printing I see shortly the status "Printing - Restarting". That's probably when it starts the 2nd copy. Sometimes it stops by itself, other times it seems to be looping and I have to turn the printer off and delete the document from the queue.
    HP solution center SW is updated, I run Vista with latest service packs on a Thinkpad T400s.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    My C6180 printed multiple copies of any document from my Vista OS laptop ( wireless connection ), but not from my
    XP OS desktop ( USB connection), even though I selected 1 copy on the print menu. Unchecking "Enable bidirectional support" in the Properties / Ports dialog box solved the problem. Hope this helps someone too.

  • How can I get text printed out larger? It prints too small to read.

    I have an hp psc 1610 all-in-one printer. When I print articles from the internet the text is too small. The options to change size only seem to affect the screen size, not the printer size. It prints fine in my word processor, etc.

    File > Page Setup > '''Scale''' <br />
    100% or Shrink to Fit is usually the best.

  • Print too small to read from printer with Page shrink on 30%

    When printing some emails on Xerox 7225 the print is too small to read even with page shrink on 30%. latest email is from an AOL account and header lines do wrap. This problem is new.

  • Flex PDF Printing too small need 8 1/2 x 11

    I am using Adobe Flex with  IBI's WebFOCUS Enable. Once I export my SWT file to Adobe Flex in PDF format works fine on the screen until I print. Printing on 8 1/2 x 11 paper shows up in the lower left hand bottom about 4 times too small. I heard it has to fit Adobe flex pallet or be shrunk. Is there some conversion software to remedy this? Please adivse. Joe

    Quick look at the "save as" feature has a list a mile long, including vector, autocad, xml, and more. Personally, I haven't used the program beyond playing with it and researching to discover it cannot do dates with the time period I need (though I imagine there might be a way to manually create the dates).
    I've found Timeline Maker, and it looks like it can do what I need without a large learning curve. However, I would very much like to learn how to work most effectively in InDesign (rather than spread my learning across several programs). I do have a subscription to Lynda.com, and I have worked through a few tutorials, but I didn't apply what I learned immediately thereafter...and it seems I've forgotten much of what I learned!
    If you have any recommendations for a novice working with InDesign CS5 who is trying to make a print book with maps, timelines, and perhaps an ebook with animations, I'd be grateful.
    Presently, I'm setting up files to correspond with my outline. (Trying to manage chaos.) Any input in that regard would be appreciated. Since I'm working alone, I don't have the benefit of seeing any "industry standards".)
    Thanks again,

  • Printing too small

    Hi all.
    My printer that is connected to my AE (cannon pixma 4000) is printing everything too small. This is all documents in Word and images in Photoshop. I preview before printing go into every dialogue box available and make sure they are set correctly and still it is coming up too small. I hate having to save everything and open it on the PC to get it to print properly.
    This is a recent thing that happened as it was printing the correct size before.
    Any ideas folks?
    Thanks Alison.

    Hi Ish2,
    Have you tried shutting down the computer (not a restart) and then doing a Hard Reset on the printer as described in the next link.  Click Here  After powering up the computer, is there any difference?
    If you do a Print Preview, does the page appear as it should?
    What is the scale set on?
    If you click on Print from the Print Preview window, does that make a difference?
    Also, remember a click on the Kudos star to the left is a quick "Thanks" for a helpful post.

  • Airport printing prints too small

    I recently bought a used Airport Extreme 4th generation, and have it hooked up to my 2009 Mac Pro with Mavericks. I got my old Epson R2400 to work wirelessly hooked up to the Airport- great! One big problem is that all of my prints are coming out half size? I know how to pick 100% in the Epson printer dialog, but with everything the same as it was with the USB connected to computer presets, it comes out too small?
    I looked at document setup in Photoshop, etc., no luck.
    Anyone else solve this problem or have suggestions?

    It just may be that you need to install the latest print driver for this printer. The following link is from Epson support for your Mac.
