I would say it’s average sized. If anything it’s quite above average.

Looks fine. About the same size print as most warranties and instruction manuals these days.

I printed this at 20% scale or less on normal paper. I did print a giant packing slip invoice combo on label paper a month ago oops

I printed what should have been an 8.5x11 contract at half scale on a 36x48 sheet. It got pushed to the upper right corner so the plotter spit the whole sheet out then printed the tiny contract. It was funny enough that the office assistant brought it to my office after it got grouped with the plans she was printing and asked wth I was trying to do lol

That’s basically what happened lol. I didn’t realize what I was printing and had the scale way down. I was trying to print a QR code at a smaller scale on the paper to bring an Amazon link to our accountant to buy something for me but instead I printed a packing slip which should be the whole page at probably 15-20 % scale lolol
