Printed web pages are produced at font sizes that are enormous - essentially a 1/4 of the web page prints on one 8x11 paper.

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

== recently, past few days

Thanks for the quick response. I never changed any settings, not sure how that happened. I just noticed it myself and fixed it - prints like a charm now!

Thanks again.
