How to enlarge text for printing in Chrome (Print Scaling)

You may wish to enlarge text from a webpage that you intend to print. Zooming in on the page won't result in larger printed text. Instead, you must use print scaling to increase the size of the text that is sent to the printer. Follow these instructions to use or change your print scale settings in Chrome.

  • Press Ctrl+P or click the three dots in the upper right hand corner, then click Print...

Open Print Menu in Chrome

  • Click on the More Settings menu
