    my printer is printing larger font, even in print to pdf


    About a week ago, my printer started printing things about 135%, which means it cuts off the right edge of everything I print. This is NOT a printer SCALING problem...if I choose a smaller scaling in the print dialog, it makes everything smaller zooms out, but still cuts off the right side of the print file. This phenomenon even applies in "Microsoft Print to PDF" of all things.


    I have tried deleting and reinstalling my printer Canon MX922 Series numerous times, and also the print to PDF driver. Nothing changes. I have tried "Restore default font settings" to no avail...it just goes away somewhere and never returns, with no effect.


    I hope someone can tell me what's going on here. This was a sudden onset, and I have not knowingly updated anything recently. I could also add that I have been able to print files using my wife's Apple MacBook with no such printing anomalies same printer, also Wi-Fi connected.

    :)

    Thanks for your help. I was browsing the web the other day and I found a page called FINAL DRAFT. They had a set of instructions for reinstalling the Microsoft Print to PDF utility that worked great for me. Problem solved.
