When I print a web page either by selecting the print option on the page or selecting Print.. from Firefox File menu, the page prints with reduced print size. This does not happen when using Internet Explorer. How can I change the font size? This has been happening for several weeks now.

Adjust the print scale: File > Page Setup > "Format & Options": Scale (unselect: "Shrink to fit page width")

Many thanks for your input, but the “Shrink to fit page width” was not actually selected. However, under Printer Features “Resizing Options” was set to A4 whilst “Scale to Paper size” was set to Letter. Changing this to A4 seems –fingers crossed- to have resolved the problem! Again, thanks for your time, much appreciated.
