Epson ET-2715 prints very small

Hello all,

I bought an Epson ET-2715 for my dad. Initially all was good, but now it prints pages in about 1/10 the size it should have. I can not find anything that would explain this behavior. I have run through the troubleshooting process (from CUPS?) without results. The output of that is below.
