When I try to print anything off the internet, what should print on one page comes out on several with everything enlarged. I have no problem printing from Word or Excel. This only happens on firefox and printing from the internet. How do I correct this?

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

== for a couple of weeks now

Most likely you have print scale set wrong. Select "Print preview" from "File" menu, then play a little with "scale" option.

Thank you!!! That was the problem--scale was set at 200% (don't know why)--when I reduced it to 100% it printed perfectly.

Thanks again for helping me resolve this problem.
