Default Viewed vs Printed Text Size in Emails

The font size in my email message window is small enough to fill the screen
with most messages. However, if I print out a message, the font size is two or
three times larger and often requires several pages to print. I my OE6 text
size set at "smaller" but that setting doesn't seem to relate to what appears in
a printed copy. Any suggestions for how to match or coordinate the email &
printer (HP 895CSe) text sizes? This only seems to happen when printing emails.
Printed documents or web pages come out the same size as they appear on the
monitor.

Outlook Express uses the same print engine as Internet Explorer.

For print size: IE | View | Text Size | Make adjustment.

For margins: IE | File | Page Setup. (Default setting is 0.75 all around).
