Can someone please advise me what to do? I accidentally enlarged my screen, and I can't get rid of it...even after shutting down my computer and restarting. I think my finger accidentally hit either F9 or F8, and the screen enlarged. Any advice? Thank you!!

I have a HP 20" touch. When I need to change the print size on my screen I go to the upper top right corner on the screen. There is a small magnifying glass with a + in it. I click on that and a screen opens that allows me to set the print size I want or I can ask to go back to "default". I hope that this helps. Good Luck

I had the same problem only in reverse. Try holding down the CTRL key and then hit the - (key with straight line) that should make it smaller or Hold down CTRL key and use your mouse. Good luck, it worked for me.

Geller girl and Bookbabe, I tried what you both recommended, but it didn't do the trick. My print didn't actually enlarge in size. What enlarged was the margins around my screen...weired, huh?
Oh...think I just answered my own question. I hit the restore button at the top right of the screen, and it shrunk it down, and then I was able to enlarge it to the right size. Learned something new that I should have tried right away!
Oh, well...thanks for your help, and hope you both have a nice day!

It is good to know I am not the only one who learns something new every day especially when it comes to electronics.

Bookbabe, when it comes to computers, I usually learn from my mistakes!

@Yardlie I press control key and the number 0 and it brings me back to the original screen size.

Karnerblue, thanks for the tip. I'll remember that one!

Great advice on this thread! I love the way posters help each other. @Yardlie, I wanted to add that any time the screen or any websites appear to be too large or too small, remember these key words: "zoom in or zoom out." You always can do a search to refresh your memory about how to zoom in/out on your specific device or your browser. hth!
