Reports printing small

I'm glad to hear from you today, Thybo86.

I appreciate the screenshot you've provided. Let's get your printing issue back to normal.

You may want to check the printer setup in QuickBooks Desktop and make sure the fit report option is selected. Here's how:

1. Go to the File menu and then select Printer Setup.
   
2. For the Form Name, choose Report.
3. Under Page Breaks, make sure the Fit report to is selected.
   
4. Hit OK.

If you're still getting the same issue, you can set the Margins of your report to increase its sizes.

Additionally, I've included an article that'll help you with customizing reports in QuickBooks. This way, the reports will fit your style and business needs: Set Report Preferences.

You can also memorize the report to save its current customization settings. It serves as your record and helps you quickly access it for future use. 

You'll be back to business in no time. Please know I'm only a post away if you still need help with printing your reports or have follow-up questions with QuickBooks Desktop. I'll be around to keep helping.

Thanks for the prompt answer.

I had tried that before and it didn't work.

Thanks for getting back to us, @Thybo86.

You can check the paper size that you set up in your printer and ensure that the reports will fit into it. Also, make sure that your QuickBooks is updated to the latest release.

We can also perform the necessary troubleshooting steps to fix potential data problems. First off, let's run the Rebuild utility. Then, Verify to find any issues within your data file. Here's how: 

Rebuild data

1. Go to the File menu, then select Utilities.
2. Click Rebuild Data.
3. Select OK when you see Rebuild has completed.

Verify data:

1. Go back to the File menu, then select Utilities.
2. Click on Verify Data.
3. If you see QuickBooks detected no problem with your data, select OK. You may continue using your company file.

I solved it!  

In QB Desktop, select File/Printer set up/Report.

Under the Settings tab, select Options next to the printer name.

Under the Layout tab, select Advanced at the bottom right.

Change the Paper Size to Letter.  Mine was defaulting to another option.

I am still having issues and the issues just started.  I tried your instructions and my printer settings have not changed.  But all my reconciling reports are printing super small-very hard to read.  Did QB's have an update since Aug 18th that may have caused this issue?

I'll help you figure out the issue about reports printing very small, kerryboersma.

If you haven't already, you can run the QuickBooks Print and Print Repair Tool from the QuickBooks Tool Hub. This tool helps with common issues in QBDT. 

1. Download the most recent version (1.5.0.0) of the QuickBooks Tool Hub. 
2. Open the file you downloaded (QuickBooksToolHub.exe).
3. Follow the on-screen steps to install and agree to the terms and conditions.
4. When the install finishes, double-click the icon on your Windows desktop to open the tool hub.
5. From the Tool Hub, run the QuickBooks PDF & Printer Repair Tool.
6. In the QuickBooks Tool Hub, select Program Problems.
7. Select QuickBooks PDF & Print Repair Tool. It will take about a minute to run.
8. Attempt to print, email, or save as a PDF from QuickBooks Desktop again.

If the issue continues, I recommend contacting our Customer Care Support Team. This way, one of our agents can pull up your account and do a screen-sharing session to investigate the cause of the issue further.

I'll be right here if you have any other questions regarding printing concerns in QuickBooks.
