Canon MX860 printing Half sized for no reason

Post Body

I have a Canon MX860 inkjet. Little old but still works well, and in this world of not really needing a printer much, it suits my needs.

Lately, when I go to print a doc, after checking all the settings, to make sure I'm printing at 100% size, and 1 page to 1 sheet, and everything else that I can think to check, it will print the doc at 25% normal size. Then without changing a single setting, if I hit print again, it will print the same document at 100%.

I even reset my Mac (Desktop running High Sierra) to factory settings and still have this problem. Is there a way to reset the printer to factory settings? Or is there s settings menu that I am missing somewhere? Apple seems to streamline the settings menu so there really isn't much to change.

If I need to buy a new printer, then I will just be ok printing a 1/2 sized "test page" out for now.

TIA for any advice

Cheers!
