Enail Printing Problem-Windows 10

Out of the blue my computer started printing out emails, and things from websites  and attachments (attachment-print out fine if I save them to a separate file, but not if I open the attachments directly from the email.  Windows 10 is my OS,   I have checked the printers' settings: which I have not changed.  I have a Canon 1550, and a Okidata C3400N.  Properties are still the same. I think it must be some setting in my computer.  I have rebooted the computer several times as well as the printers.   Any suggestions.
Thanks.

Did you mean :

1/ "my computer stopped printing out emails .." ??
Or, is it that
2/ it has randomly commenced printing out stuff of it's own accord ??

Not sure which way to interpret the question ... :-)

It does print out email and attachments, but  it is extremely small type.  It is on all my printers.  I checked out the properties on the printers.  Nothing changed. I have rebooted printers and my computer.  I have to save attachments and then I can print them out in normal sized type.  I think something must have changed in my computer settings, but I have no idea where.
Thanks

This text is too small, it is almost certainly not caused by the printer or driver but by the email program.

How do you access your email? Do you use your browser? In that case, which one (Edge, Chrome, etc)? And do you use gmail, hotmail or something else?

If you use an email program, which one (Windows Mail, Outlook, etc)?

I use both Firefox or Chrome.  I have two emails accounts.  The company uses gmail and personal account is Comcast.  I never thought of the browser being the problem.
Thanks.

Thanks everyone.   I went to Firefox and followed the instructions to reset it.  My Firefox said refresh.
