Kevin, If someone sends me something by email(attached or copied) sometimes it looks fine then I just go to "printer" from my "Windows Mail" and print it out and it comes out so tiny. Not always, at times the print is fine to read. I use I.E. for my browser.(8) I did try "copy" and went to "Works " and it printed out fine-but I thought there might be a way to adjust size of printing text from mail. Helen

Hi Helen, When you are in Windows Mail and are ready to Print there should be a Menu Option File >> Print.  Check to see what it says under "Scaling", as this may be reducing your print size.  Also, it may be set to "Fit to Size", which may also cause a problem.  You may have to do a little testing to print on your model printer.
