How do I change the font size when printing from Eclipse?

Question

Sometimes I'd like to print my code and read it during lunch. In Eclipse I'm using 10pt Helvetica font, but printing at this size is a waste of paper I think. I changed to font size 6pt, and the print was perfect; fully readable and paper saving.

However, coding in 6pt font is very hard and stressing for my eyes, so I cannot keep the setting. Also, changing font size everytime I print is a pain.

Is there a way to keep 10pt for my editor AND have the printer run at 6pt, at the same time?

Answer 1

I ended up changing the paper size to A5 and printing to PDF, then printing the PDF to A4.
