It really all depends on what program you're attempting to
print with. Some have scaling options that will resize to
fit, others will not, in which case you're kinda stuck.

If you're printing from Internet Explorer, you could try
downloading FireFox, which has a "shrink to fit" option.

Good luck!


Thanks for asking,
