Printer scale default error

I have a 2 yr old iMac running OSX7.10.5 which out of the blue started to default print scale to 300%. It defaults to that after every job regardless of printer used or application. Any idea what caused this and how to fix it? Thanks.

iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.5)

Thanks for your response. I decided to reboot for the second time during this episode and lo and behold, every app I tried except for Safari had corrected itself in terms of printer scale. A third reboot did the job for Safari too. Very strange. I had already tried some of the suggestions offered to folks with an identical problem outlined in prior posts but only the reboots seemed to do any good. Now let's see if this fix lasts. Thanks again for your help!
