How Do I Get This To Print At Full Page?

Might someone be able to tell me how I can print this scale to print at a full page (8.5 x 11)? I can only get it to print as a small long strip in the middle of the page. I am including a screenshot. 

 

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

I recognise the Print dialog. It is either Acrobat Reader or Acrobat.

But the preview is what the PDF actually contains: a long tall strip about 100 inches tall. Acrobat/Reader is faithfully printing what is there and scaling it to fit one page. What do you actually want to print? 10 or so separate full size pages?

I tried to edit my post, but I don't see where I can do that. I am using Adobe Acrobat Pro. I want it to print on multiple pages, so it's legible. When the PDF is open, it shows it's only 1 page, but it definitely is not. I have to scroll down for a bit to get to the end of the "one-page" PDF.

Your pdf shows multiple pages, but it is a single long page of many page images, the print dialog is showing that the pdf is a single page (see arrow). I don't know how the pdf was created, perhaps from a scanner? at any rate, if you can't get a better pdf, your options would be to duplicate the page as many times as there are page images (from the page thumbnail panel) and crop each page, then print. The other method would be to create an InDesign file with the desired number of pages and place the long pdf onto each page, adjusting the height offset for each page (subtract approximately 11 inches vertical offset to each page), then export to a new pdf.
