    What do you mean when you say too small???

    The printer driver for windows and linux are quite different. So you need some kind of scaling of fonts to make that happen.

    Well.......by example....one page printed from linux is about the 2% of the page printed from windows.....

    maybe you need to set the device dimensions differently on windows.
