    Is there anyway to turn off the "Shrink to Fit" feature when printing in IE7.
    Since I have installed IE7 every time I print something off the net it prints so small I sometimes have trouble reading it.

    I know I can go "Print Preview" and change the setting to print that page but when I go to print another page it defaults back to shrink to fit.

    I would like to be able to set the default at 100%.

    You, I and many others wish for a facility to turn off the Shrink to Fit feature in IE7 - I have been unable to find one. I guess it is hardcoded into the software.

    Pete, thanks for the bad news. I have searched the MS Support site and also the HP printer support site and couldn't find anything that relates to shrink to fit. I thought for sure someone on this forum would have an answer. I guess it's one of those MS quirks I'll have to live with. Thanks again for responding.
