How do you change the print zoom of a webpage for printing?

I would like to know how to change the print zoom (the zoom of a page on the paper when it is printed) of a webpage for printing. I used to always do this when I had Mozilla Firefox on a Windows XP computer but ever since I got Mozilla Firefox on a Windows 7 computer, I could not do it. When I go to "File", there is no "Page setup" or "Print preview"; it just shows you the print preview and only allows you to alter the print, number of pages and copies, the layout, the colour and the zoom of the page (physical size of the whole page on the screen). I would be very grateful if anyone could solve this problem. Many thanks.

orange Firefox button (or File, by hitting the Alt key to reveal the Menu Bar) > Print -> Print Preview (or Page Setup)

Adjust the Scale in the Print Preview window.

Thank you but there is no orange button or Menu Bar and pressing the Alt key does nothing.

I am very sorry but I have been using Google Chrome by mistake. Many thanks for all your help anyway. Sorry.

Yup, there's no Firefox button (or Menu Bar either) in Chrome.
