printer controls
Every time I try printing, the print and images come out too small. Making the percent larger doesn't do anything. Looking at the about:config instructions to make printer changes got me lost. With all those printer options that the list shows, I'm confused as to what specific options I need to change to make the print and images larger. Can someone be specific about what options to change or reset to make my printer show larger text and images? Thank you.

Typically the Scale setting is off or there's an issue with Margins settings being askew.
Or maybe the Paper Size is set wrong.
Thank you for your reply. I'm pretty sure the paper size and margins are correct, but how do I check scale size? How can I review just what my printer parameters are for the print outcome? I recall seeing a option where I could enlarge the print percentage, but that didn't do anything to the print size, strangely? Can you be of any assistance? Thank you.

the-edmeister,
I did follow your suggestions, and it seems the settings I have are the correct one's. Not sure whats going on with the small print and images, but maybe it will be OK now?
While this is related to my problem, specifically, Ed, probably the biggest problem with small print is the website Mapquest. When I try printing one of their maps, it comes out too small and not in enough detail, even though the page as it appears on my monitor is the size I want and the size I want to print. I know this may be out of your help Firefox solutions, but any clue as to whats going on, and how it can be possibly solved? Have you had any experience trying to print a Mapquest map, Ed? If so, were you able to get the correct size map? Again, thank you for your help, it is appreciated.
