Printer Cartridge 74XL too small

I have an Officejet J6480 which I purchased a 74XL 75XL printer cartridge combo pack. The 74XL cartridge was physically twice the size of the old 74. The 75XL was about the same size as the 75. On the HP solution center the 74XL is only recognised as a 74. After printing about 320 documents the HP Solution Center is telling me that I have used two thirds of the 74XL cartridge ink. The cartridge box indicates that the 74XL should do 750 pages. The 75XL has used about a quarter of ink. Is this OK for 74XL for this printer and why does it not show up on the HP Solution Center.

The print face is too small

When I print using the latest version the type face is too small.
This happens on many sites.

File > Page Setup = '''Scale'''
That's the control for printed font size.

My toolbox print is way too small

the font on my toolbox is way too small and I can't change it

Do you mean the Firefox use interface?

The printer prints the fonts too small when I try to print a page off the Internet.

My new printer is the Photosmart D110a. It is printing documents from Microsoft word but when I try to print a document from an Internet site, the font is so small I cannot read it. How can I adjust the printer settings so the font size is a 12? I do not think I have the wireless stuff set up correctly but I don't need to do any cloud printing or things like that. I would appreciate any help you can give me.

OK, well, when you print, use File > Print or Control-P on the resulting window click on Preferences, then on the Effects tab. See if you are printing in Acutal Size, like this:

Printer output incorrect/too small after upgrading to VS 2010 Crystal

I have a Windows Form application that was originally written using .net 3.5 and the version of Crystal Reports that came with Visual Studio 2008. When the VS 2010 release of Crystal Reports came out, I upgraded the application to .net 4/VS 2010 and the new Crystal release.
This application prints checks on blank check stock, so alignment of the output has to be very exact to print the checks correctly. It prints the reports using the PrintToPrinter() method of the ReportDocument class.
In the original version of the program, I had everything aligned correctly in the check report. After updating the application to the latest Crystal release,but making no changes to the report itself, I noticed that the alignment of the checks report was incorrect.
After comparing the output, I was able to determine that the new output is slightly shrunk compared to old output, almost as if it is scaling the report in some way.
I opened the report in the new report designer and verified that all page size and margin settings were correct/the same as before, and they were. The printed output is smaller than it should be based on how the report is designed. I tried adjusted the paper size, and also tried the "Dissociate Formatting Page Size and Printer Paper Size" to see if I could somehow adjust for the scaling, but nothing I tried was successful.
Our check printer is a HP LaserJet 5Si. During my investigation into the problem I discovered that if I printed the report to a pdf printer (PDFCreator) the resulting pdf did not have the same scaling/shrinking problem that I get when the report is sent directly to the LaserJet. I also printed a page from the pdf to the LaserJet using Acrobat Reader, and the output was as I expected it to be.
I only seem to be seeing the scaling/shrinking problem when I send the report directly to the LaserJet. Is there some new setting that I'm overlooking that would be applying some sort of report-wide scaling? Any other ideas as to why this is happening?

Looking for HP LaserJet 5Si at the HP website:
http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/ProductList.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodTypeId=18972&prodSeriesId=25478&taskId=135
I notice that there are several different types (hm, mx, nx, ...). Also, there are different drivers, depending on the OS.
Ensure that you are using the correct driver (hm, mx, nx, ...) for your printer and for your OS and that the driver has the latest updates from HP.

Print font size too small

When printing in Safari, the print size is tiny, both in email and web sites, smaller than it appears on screen. When using Internet explorer or Firefox it prints the right size. If I go to Safari edit, preferences, then appearance, and raise font size, it will print larger, but all font sizes on web pages are way big. How can I just increase the print font size. My IP is Comcast. OS is Win XP sp3.

It should print the same size. Click View -> "Make text bigger" before printing.

Print is unreadable, too small

Hello, I am using Windows 7, I.E 8 and the printer is a H.P. C5280 all in one.
Here is an example > the print is about half the size of this.
Thanks to anyone that has a solution.

If you are trying to print a web page, you can go up to file and then Print Preview. Go up to "Shrink To Fit" button and a drop down menu appears. Change the setting to say 100% or 125%, then click Print. Your web page document will print in larger fonts. You will have to play around with it to see what size fits your needs. Hope this helps.
If you are speaking of Web Print, I don't know of any solution yet. I am trying to figure that out. I will post when I find a solution.

Since your last update, text on all printed documents is too small to read. Spoke to Kodak and it is not my ESP7250 printer as everything prints fine with Internet Explorer

I cannot read anything printed from the internet using your browser. The text is microscopic.

First, try the printer reset described in this thread:
[http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/680315 Recently unable to print from Firefox after update-- can print from everything else. | Firefox Support Forum | Firefox Help]
Does that help? You also might want to check your scaling setting under File > Page Setup (if the old menu bar is not displayed, press F10 to call it up).

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.

Printing from internet source too small to read. Have to use Internet Explorer to print.

When using the Firefox browser, printing from an internet source, print font is too small to be readable. Can go to Internet Explorer to print from an internet source and the size of the printed font is readable.

In Preview>Preferences>PDF tab, is Greeking Threshold ste, and/or Anti-Alias text & Line art? Images Tab... Actual size, Respect DPI?
If you want to Print better Rez, dont print from Safari, but download it, load it in Preview, don't save it, it'll go to 72-150 DPI, just Print from there... any diff?
To save PDFs in better resolution from Preview, try these Quartz Filters courtesy Jerome Colas...

Print dialog font is too small: Acrobat Reader on Linux

I'm running Acrobat Reader version 7.0.5 on CentOS 4.5 (RedHat Enterprise
4.5) and find that the fonts used on the Print dialog are too small.
They are much smaller than the fonts used on labels and other controls
in the rest of the application, and are very difficult to read. By
comparison, they seem to be about 1/2 the size of the font used by the
Reader menu bar (File, Edit, View, ...).
I've gone through the Edit -> Preferences, but don't see anything which
will change the size of the fonts used on this dialog.
Is there a configuration file or some other way that I can increase the
size of these fonts?
Thanks,

the issue occurs on systems running debian-etch, debian-etch'n-half,
debian-lenny, and gentoo with xdm as display manager and fvwm as
window manager. the x-server runs with the '-dpi 75' option regardless of
the screen's physical dimensions. the screen's resolution is 1600x1200.
for me it looks like acroread is creating it's dialog boxes independently
from gtk-settings in $HOME/.gtkrc-2.0 (apart from the OK/Cancel buttons of
the printing dialog) and while doing so, it makes wrong assumptions about
the font-size by using the dpi setting of the screen to calulate the physical
dimention of the screen. if the x-server is running with '-dpi 100' the
dialog fonts are considerably bigger, but still differs from the settings
in $HOME/.gtkrc-2.0. for example when you make setting of
        style "default"
                font_name = "Verdana 24"
        class "*" style "default"
then you don't get neither Verdana nor 24pt fonts in the whole acroread
gui except for the menubar and the OK/Cancel buttons of the printing
dialog, while any other gtk-program like firefox, thunderbird, and others
apprear completely in Verdana 24pt -- which is of course far too big, but
illustrated the issue very clearly.
screenshots (with gtk-fonts set to Verdana 24pt and Tahoma 11pt) are
inserted below. (as you can see, the printing dialog and advanced printing
dialog even use different fonts.)
thank you very much for the very quick reply.

Will Print on White -Error with Colored Paper: too Small

Trying to print gift tags on colored paper with Photosmart 7960. Print Preview indicates will fit and prints ok on white paper. Using colored paper of same weight and thicker - printer error "paper too small"
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Hi - You might try setting the Paper Type to Plain Paper rather than Automatic. Sometimes the color can throw off the paper sensors. In whatever app you're in, click File, Print and then there should be a Preferences or Options button, click that and you should be able to find the Paper Type option.
Hope that helps.

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.

How can I sort my photos by size? I need to get rid of those which are too small to print.

Is there a way to sort individual photos in iphoto by size. (I know you can sort photos in finder- picture by size, but mine are in iphoto). I am organizing my thousands of photos into files within iphoto in order to print hundreds. I am finding that many are too small to ever print (20-30kb) , and would like to delete those en masse rather than waste time sorting them, but cannot find a way to do that. Does anyone know if there is a way? It would be a terribly useful function. Also, sorting by size would enable you to resize photos that take massage amounts of room unneccesarily. Thanks for any info.

No there is no way to do this.
Also, sorting by size would enable you to resize photos that take massage amounts of room unneccesarily.
No it wouldn't. There's no way to change the filesize in iPhoto, it always preserves the original file.
