Print too small to read

New HP Officejet J4580
All in One
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 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.

Select the email
'File' > 'Print Preview'
You can change the size of the font by changing the 'Scale'.
increase the Scale to increase the font.
so start by selecting: Scale = 100%
When all looks ok, click on 'Print' button

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.

Email prints too small to read, prints OK in I

When I print emails, they are too tiny to read. They print fine if I print them with IE 9. I use verizon webmail and have a Brother MFC-J615W printer. Until recently, Emails were previously printing fine. I have Dell XPS 8300 desktop computer running Windows 7 64 bit home premium.
Thanks,
Truman

File printing and icons for folders in Bridge CS5 - too small to read

Got CS5 and am trying to use Bridge. The folders are too small to read and the print with them too small. The slider at the bottom of the page enlarges the space but the files and printing stay the same size. If I open one the images will enlarge with the slider but I don't want to waste time opening each file to see what is in them. I want to be able to read wha the file is and open the right one first try.
Tried calling "tech support" Those jackasses can't speak English. On hold for 3 hours overall after getting someone, getting cut off and having to call again. I hope Pakistan nukes India and solves that problem.
When I finally got through the guy told me my Photoshop copy was not registered. Funny, it was last week when it had problems. Then I try changing the pasword and it says it did it, but won't accept it.
I hate computers.
So, anyone know how to get this damn probram to make the folders and printing big enough to read without my having to get up to the screen with a magnifying glass like Sherlock Holmes? The screen is a 22inch graphic arts monitor and I don't have this problem with any other programs. Not Breezebrowser, Not Auto Pano Pro, not Photo Mechanic. Just Bridge with this overpriced and overhyped photoshiz crap.

Small, and uncustomizable, fonts has been a com
plaint in PhotoShop also.
Send in a bug report, they do read those, and maybe if enough users complain they will modify the program.

Print output too small to read

Different pages are scaled between about 90% and 25%,
resulting in text that's too small to read. I don't see any
controls that allow one to seet the scale factor.

I am having the same problem. I created my Flashpaper
document on a Mac in OS 10.3. My file looks fine in the browser,
but when I print it, the document scales. I am using the Flash
Player 9 plugin and this problem seems to exist on any browser I
use on my Mac (Safari, Firefox, Opera). The flashpaper documents on
Adobe's site are doing the same thing to me. Please let me know if
anyone has a solution. Does this happen in anyone else's
environment (different browser/platform)?

Prints too small can't read it

I have the HP Officejet 6500A when I print something it is too small to read. I downloaded a new driver that said it would fix it but it didn't. Any help would be appreciated

Hi,
You can change font sizes and/or increase/decrease (%) when print from application. Which application do you print from ? Or from a web browser ?

Thunderbolt - everything too small to read at high res

I want to use my Thunderbolt at full resolution but everything is just too small to read without eventually getting a headache ! I bought a large screen to make reduce the strain.
Is there a way around this?

There is a fix!
I have a 30 inch monitor running at 2560 x 1600 with my Mac Mini and the outrageous $99 adapter from Apple. (Found it new for $60 on eBay.)
My menu bars and Google Chrome's tabs and bookmark bar were both way too small - like 4 point!
TinkerToolSystem, (not TinkerTool) allows you to go into hidden preferences and re-set to "HiDPI." Afer making the adjustment which doubled my DPI, I had to choose half the resolution 1280 x 800, but with no loss of real resolution! Things did get bigger elsewhere but I was able to adjust most of them. Hooray! GL!
Download the Evaluation copy of TinkerToolSystem. You get to open it 5 times for free.

About halfway down, under "Screen."
For Snow Leopard
By default, Mac OS X assumes that the display screen is rendering graphics with a resolution of 72 pixels per inch. This policy was taken over from the classic Mac OS. While this basic assumption was true when the Macintosh was introduced more than 20 years ago, today's display devices often have a much higher resolution. The pixels have become smaller, so your screen may actually use e.g. 100 pixels per inch. In practice, this means that graphical elements, for example fonts, will be displayed too small, so a 12 point font selected in an application might no longer match the actual size of a 12 point font printed in a book when you compare screen and book side by side.
To accommodate these changes, Mac OS X is capable of using arbitrary display resolutions. TinkerTool System allows you to change the resolution between 36 and 216 pixels per inch. If the screen display stays the same, the screen contents will be displayed larger when you set a higher resolution, and smaller when you set a lower resolution.
For Lion and Mt.Lion
Apple has removed the feature from the operating system that allowed to control the physical resolution of screen output by an infinitely variable factor. As of 10.7 or later, this function was replaced by the feature HiDPI (High Number of Dots per Inch) which allows to double the physical resolution only. This means you can select between the discrete values 72 ppi and 144 ppi (or 288, 578, … ppi in the far future). Other magnification steps or scaling down are no longer available. The HiDPI strategy allow OS X to be used on ultra-high-resolution screens (“retina displays”).
Enabling the HiDPI feature requires two steps. The first step is to unlock HiDPI mode via TinkerTool System. The second step is to select one of the HiDPI display resolutions on the pane Displays ofSystem Preferences. Perform the following steps to work with HiDPI display modes:
Select the item Screen in the pane System.
Switch between the two possible modes Hide HiDPI resolutions and Display HiDPI resolutions.
Log out to let the change take effect.
When you log in again, you can launch System Preferences, go to Displays and choose one of the HiDPI settings shown in the table Display > Resolutions.
WARNING: The display resolution is a very critical setting. If you set the resolution too high, the windows can become so large that they no longer fit on screen. This means you can no longer see or control all parts of some applications which can make your system unusable!
To use the system with 144 ppi, a screen with at least 2048 x 1536 pixels is strongly recommended, because OS X applications are designed by the rule that they can expect windows to have a minimum size of 1024 x 768 pixels at 72 ppi.
The Retina Displays may lead to a software update and then we will all be happy.

6500 prints too small

I have an All in One 6500 printer that I bought at Christmas time. When printing anything online, (whether I highlight & print selection or print the whole webpage), the fonts and everything shrinks and is too small to read. I have looked through the preferences and cannot find anything that is improperly checked which makes it reduced the size. Help please!!!!

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.

Pages load too small to read in firefiox but not in other browsers. Always have to zoom in 5 times.

Pages load too small to read in Firefox but not in other browsers. Always have to zoom in 5 times.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== A long time, months, I think since I bought the computer..

I forgot to add the extensions installed:
auto hide Ip 1.0
Better privacy 1.48.3
download helper 4.8
java console 6.0.2
Norton IPS 2.0
Norton toolbar 4.6
quickProxy 2009.07.19
realplayer browser record plugin 1.1.4
stumbleupon 3.64

When i browse with firefox the search results come up too small to read and I can't find any menu buttons (ie, can't find anywhere to zoom in or the view menu)

Have just got a new computer. Downloaded firefox as it has always been better than explorer and I've never had trouble on previous computers. It seemed to download okay. I set google as my home page. When I type a search phrase into it, the results page comes up too small to read. It's like it's normal but miniature. You know how google has google images, googlevideos, google maps across the top of it, if I click on the minature 'images' word, it comes up with the google images page but also very tiny. But if I click the mini 'videos' word, the videos search page is normal sized and so is the maps page.
It's driving me crazy because the initial page seems okay but there's no normal google stuff on that either, and then when I try to search for something, it goes tiny.

Hello Ashley.
You may be having a problem with some extension or plugin that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
On the other hand, you may have Firefox configured to display fonts like that. Check Tools > Options > Content > Fonts & Colors and see that the font size is not too small. In my experience, sizes bellow 16 will be way to small to read.

Display is too small to read

I opened Windows in Bootcamp and the icons are there but the fonts are all too small to read. I can't click on anything to fix it because I don't know what I'm clicking on. There must be a mix-up in the display settings but I can't navigate to where I need to go to fix it. Is there a way to fix it?

I opened Windows in Bootcamp.
What version of Windows do you have, Dennis? XP, Vista or 7?
