email print-out font is too small

Hi, When I print out an email, the font is so small I can hardly read it... I would say about a 6pt size. I also have problems with web pages too. How do I get the email to print out with larger size font?

O-Menu -> Print -> Print options

If you want .5 inch margins all around like other browsers, set each margin to 1.27cm.

For the scale, set it to 100%.

Also, uncheck "fit to paper width" if you don't like it.

And, if you're printing local files etc. and don't want the annoying headers you get, turn off printing of headers.

Do note though that printing at a scale of 100% is broken and printing from email is pretty messed up too.

Also, for paper and orientation, set the paper size Letter. But, you may want to try A4 depending on the standard paper size in your country.

I had a similar problem - the printed text was too small to read.. I set the scale to 90% (the default seemed to be 80%) and left the margins at their defaults. Emails print just fine now.
