I hear through the grapevine that this change happened a few weeks ago but it's entirely normal now to see such smaller barcodes.

As BA changed this and I have some wasted A4 paper I demand compensation
Yes, I've had the same problem recently but I think it may be something to do with printer settings. You can solve it by saving the boarding pass as a PDF and then printing it out. That seems to work.
