I had the same problem (Paintbrush files printing out at 1"x2" approx.) --
and tried everything to fix it -- resizing, changing the image size
description, etc. etc.  I asked MS on-line, but they were unable to
suggest a cure -- they did, however, manage to reproduce the problem.  In
the end, I pasted the graphic into Powerpoint, whereupon it printed
normally.  My guess is that WFW would work as well.  The problem seems
to have something to do with the printer: the same files do OK on an HP
Laserjet.
