How to Make AOL Print Smaller
AOL Desktop provides a central location from which to access websites, send email and instant message users. The program uses a medium size for the print as a default, but it also allows users to make the print size smaller or larger. If you want to make the print on websites smaller, you may choose to permanently use a small size for all websites, or temporarily make the print smaller on a specific page. You can also change the print size for AOL's other features, including email and IM.
