RESIZING PRINTER PAGE

Is this when you print web pages ?
I hope so because I have the same problem but can't remember the solution either !

me too

yes, ht ! i find that on some webpage printouts, i can't 'squeeze' the whole print-page onto the sheet of paper.
it must have something to do with re-sizing the page, i think.
perhaps someone is going to take pity on us.

h.e.e.e.l.p. !

This suggestion may be of some help to you.

Most Internet browsers set their printing margins to 0.75" on the left and right side of the printout. This will cause right side of the webpage to be cut off.

To print the full width of the pages, just use your page options to adjust the margins to 0.25" in both the left and right margins before printing.

...and away we go !
thanks, intrepid ! problem solved . hbg


note to ht and user :
- click on 'file'
- select 'page setup'
- key in the margin you want (mine was set at 7.5 mm, i changed it to 2.5 mm and there is now plenty of space for printout of a webpage)

Glad I was able to help, Hamburger





Did ya see the Olympic opening ceremonies with our 196 Canadian athletes :-o

My printer won't let me reset the right margin for less than .46. If I do it, it resets itself to .46, and even at .25 some web pages still wouldn't fit.

Sometimes, if I catch it in time, I can change the page from portrait orientation to landscape, which lets it fit but uses a lot more paper, but the printers seem to keep going for another page or two, or get bollixed entirely and not erase the pages in their buffers and try to print them the next time I try to get it to print something else. It does get aggravating.

intrepid :
yes, i saw our canadian athletes marching in happily - i prefer that, rather than 'proudly'.
i also liked the smaller contingents with 4 or 5 participants marching in. personally, i think participation is much more important than how many medals a team wins.

user:
i have a new system with a lexmark printer. i usually don't care about the print-quality, i just want a quick printout. the lexmark is set for 'normal' print - which is rather slow. so i set it for 'quick-print' and lock it in, but usually the printer software resets to normal -slow - print after every print-out.
i'm sure there is a fix for it somewhere ... i'll just have to find it.
there might also be some way in which you can permanently override your printer-commands, but it may require a software fix.
good luck ! hbg
