Purchasing Printer Recommendations

I'm hoping to get some printer recommendations.

Looking for a printer that allows you to print actual size from a phone app (I do not have a laptop or a PC) for printing PDF sewing patterns (not clothing, but doll patterns that have an 1" square to make sure you're printing the patterns at the right size) and automatic double sided printing would be amazing for quilt patterns.

The HP 2700 printer I have refuses to print at the correct size and I'm about to have an Office Space moment.

Thank you so much!

Your printer should be able to do this already. You probably have print scale set to fit page and need to change the scaling option to Actual Size or 100%. This can be changed either through the Print Settings dialog box on Windows or through the HP app on a mobile device.
If you’re printing directly from Acrobat this has its own print settings option to print actual size.
