Printing a PAPER copy

Hello
I want to print a paper copy of my design which is 15mm x 12mm in size. i want it to print on my Canon printer connected to my laptop and i obviously need it to be scaled up to fit a standard 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of paper.
When i select “PRINT” in the “FILE” menu there are no printer oprions to “SCALE” or "Fit to page’
How can i fix this.
Thanks
Francis

Can you can “print” the layout as a PDF, then load that file into a program allowing you to scale it as needed for printing?

Yes, that might work too…i just found out that i could hit “PRT SCN” button on my laptop, then open a graphics program and paste and then crop and print adjusting to size. The PDF route might have fewer steps…thanks

UPDATE: I tried the "Print to PDF method by “ednisley” . The result was less then spectacular. Printed image after scalling was very low res. Using the Print Screen function i used above, the result was very good.

Huh. Must be a Windows thing; I can embiggen a PDF from LightBurn to absurd sizes with clean vector scaling.

Perhaps there’s an inadvertent conversion to a bitmap format somewhere in the Windows print chain?
