Thank you everyone for your help. I finally tried a different browser and that solved the problem. I was using Mozilla and when I switched to Google Chrome it printed with no problem. I have no idea why that would make a difference but it works. So if you are having problems try a different browser. My frustration is solved, yeah.

Try setting your paper size to A4 (instead of 'letter'). This worked on mine.

Hi as suggested by someone else in another post. In your printer properties (drop down menu) choose A4 as your paper size instead of letter. You won't get the bottom of the page as A4 is longer than letter but you get everything you need. Hope this helps.

Do you have the full drivers installed? I know HP has watered down drivers that are quicker to install, but don’t have all the features. I don’t have this particular printer, but do have two other HP printer. Have not had an issue with printing at Actual size.

Hi,
I cannot get the proper size to print. I have tried letter and A4 size paper and set the printer to actual size. Any other hints to try. We are on lockdown so cannot go to a store to have anything printed.
Thanks
Brenda

What type of printer (make/model) do you have and what are you printing from (computer, iPad, phone)?
