Outlook message font suddenly too small when printed out - but not on screen???

[Guest Spin]

Gurus,

 

Suddenly my Outlook 2003 emails that I print out to my printer are appearing

in a much smaller font than while viewing them on screen. I went into Tools

> Options > Mail Format > Fonts > Message fonts and changed 10 pt. to 12 pt.

but this didn't increase the font as it appeared on my print outs. What am

I doing wrong?

Assuming IE7 is installed and the machine is fully patched at Windows

Update, see this previous discussion about Shrink To Fit printing which

applies to both Outlook and Outlook Express:

NB: You don't need to install anything. Go to the More Information section

of http://support.microsoft.com/kb/932538/ (Steps #1 through #3).
