    Prints shrunk

    I have a C284e that is shrinking anything sent from any computer by about 5%. The image is centered on the page and reduced by the same amount in all directions. This happens no matter what application or file I use, or what computer, or even which driver. Copies and scans are fine, and printing from a thumb drive in the USB host port works properly. But anything that is sent from a computer is reduced by 5%. Any ideas?

    Re: Prints shrunk

    Are you printing Metric or Imperial sizes?
    Do you have latest firmware and driver?

      Do you have a paper size override on like Leter to A4. i think there should be dip switches for this. Is it the same making copies?
      Whatever

        If these are PDFs, check to ensure "shrink to fit page" is not enabled in the print dialog box. Emujo
        If you don't see your question answered in the forum, please don't think it's OK to PM me for a personal reply...I do not give out firmware and/or manuals.

          I have the latest drivers and firmware.

          The prints are the same whether I select shrink to fit, actual size, or anything besides custom zoom.

          And being in the US, the sizes are in inches.

I know basics about this machine but not sure what exactly cna be change in order to restore its functionality.

              Please if somebody can give us some ideas that would be really nice.

                Did you reinstall the printer driver?

                  I would test from my own laptop and see if it is the same. If I couldnt quickly figure it out and if it were me I would wipe the machine and set up it from factory settings instead spending too much time on it.
