I understood that but HOW? When I right click on the i455 in printers (in Control Panel in Windows 2000 Pro), I can do a lot of things and settings but there is no mention of fonts. I may print a selection from an email or from a website but the text prints tiny. (I also have a Canon S200 on a Win XP Home computer.) Thanks for your prompt response.
As fo3nix was trying to explain, it's not the PRINTER but the APPLICATION that dicates the font size.That is to say, in the examples you mention, Internet Explorer and Outlook or Outlook Express, tell the printer what typeface and font size to use.
For example, if you're printing from Microsoft Word, you'll want to change the font size from (the default?) of 12 points, up to 18 perhaps. It'll print larger.
In Outlook Express for your email you can probably increase the font size with edit->text size (or somewhere like that).
Regardless, it's in the application you're using that you're printing the information from, not the printer itself.
