My printer is shrinking the page to half vertically. I've installed a hp officejet pro 8710 on my desktop running ubuntu 16.04. When I get to the page (on CUPS site localhost:631), where I have to choose the make and model of the printer from a drop down menu, the options for hp officejet pro start at 1150c and end at 1175c.
I have checked all of the settings, and they seem to be correct. I think I may have the wrong driver. So my question is: What is the correct driver for HP Officejet Pro 8710 in CUPS?
Thank you all very kindly
