Embarrassing computer/printer/font question

I KNOW this should be easy to fix yet I simply cannot figure out how to do this. For some reason the default font on my printer prints out the text pretty large. I would guess it’s a 16 point font.

Somebody…please tell me how do I change the default font? When I print from the internet I’m always looking at 2 or 3 pages when it should really only be on 1 page.

Thanks.

Just as a WAG, would this really be more of a browser problem than a printer problem? If you’re using IE, go to View > Text Size, and select a smaller size than whatever you have now. It seems to work for me (in print preview, at least). Of course, this may render the screen display unreadably small, and I don’t know how to have it both ways.

There may be controls on your printer that allow you to choose the default font size, but the method will vary from printer to printer (IOW, there’s no universal way to do it).
