Printing web pages

A question was asked of me that I noticed too but never botherd to figure out why.... till now...

When I or my friend try to print out web pages he noticed that he never gets the whole page.

So he asked me and I started to look into it and nothing that I set in my printer settings work to allow for printing of the full web page side to side or top to bottom.

I have tried setting edge-to-edge printing to "on"
reducing the scale of the printed to 90% of the actual page (that just shrunk the whole page but did not print the whole web page.

I have moved the margins nothing seems to work.

Is this a designed in thing or am I missing a setting for something?

Thanks,
"g"

    I have found this problem as well. As have many others.

    After mailing and calling Micro$oft about it, they gave me one peice of advice:

    "Deal with it."

    After all, it's what I paid $100 for.... right?

    What part of the webpage is not printing out? Are you sure its not an IE setting somewhere?

    This all has something to do with the way a webpage is formatted. You may notice that most webpages made with Microsofts Frontpage do not have this problem, it has something to do with text wrapping I think, not sure about that though.

    And as SMJ said you may have to just deal with it.

    You might want to try both Postscript and PCL drivers if they are available for your model. (any newer printer should have them both)
