My printer an Epson Photo Stylus 700 reduces the size of the print on my PC
screen when printing. I write a doc in 18 pt and it prints as 6 pt. I tried
prining from another application-Notepad-and the printer works fine
indicating a problem in the Word software. To get a readabkle document I have
to write in 26 pt to get an 18 pt print out?

Check all of the printer settings and check to make sure you're running the
latest drivers.

Assuming you don't have any Zoom settings enabled, make sure the document
doesn't contain markup and that the text isn't formatted as Superscript or
Subscript.
