Default PRINTING FROM OUTLOOK EXPRESS

In first time sorry about my english.
After instaled the Internet Explorer 7 have started a problem wich is when I
do a print about one e-mail message from Outlook Express wich have an JPEG
attached the type size off the menssage is reduced. The scale reduction
depends the image size, if that's a big image the type size comes very small.
I think it's because the Outlook Express makes a fit to page about the
image. May be it's possible change this option but I don't know where and how.
I hope somebody can help me.

Thanks

Default PRINTING FROM OUTLOOK EXPRESS

One of Internet Explorer 7's (IE7) new features is Shrink To Fit printing.
Outlook Express (OE) uses the IE print engine. When you're printing in IE,
you can change the Shrink To Fit settings via File Print Preview but this
is not available when you're printing an OE message.

While it's supposedly possible to change the Shrink To Fit default for OE
(or MS Outlook/OL) printing, not everyone's had success in doing so (see
Posts #12 & ff in
http://groups.google.com/group/micro...743ea25b251e3).

Try either of these workarounds:

1. Before you open the message to print it, enable the option OE Tools
Options Read Read all messages in plain text.

2. Forward the message to yourself but Remove the attachment before you send
it.
