Sewing Pattern smaller when printed

Can anyone help me? I made a sewing pattern and measured everything correctly in Adobe Illustrator. It is scaled correctly in Adobe Illustrator, but when I print it, it comes out smaller than what I have for the original. I have preset my paper size at 7" by 10.5 for the 1/2 inch margins. I have set my printer to print as a PDF at Actual size, 100% but it still comes out smaller. What am I doing wrong?

Hello everyone. I figured it out. I needed to go to advanced on my printer and change it. It worked. My pattern is now at the correct size. No need to respond.

So you are printing it on paper?

Do you print at 100%?
