Web page printing problem

[im2good4u]

im not sure if this is the right place to post this so here it goes...

a part of the web page gets cut-off when printed, and thers no option for "printer friendly" on the webpage. anything else i could do so i can print the page on a single paper? BTW using IE 6

Do your printer properties allow for you to scale the print at all?

Otherwise you could take a screenshot of the page and try printing it in another program - like Photoshop if you have it.

no options like that for my printer. is there any options inside IE that could accomplish that?

It mattes how hte web page is coded.

One workaround is to try printing in landscape and adjust hte left/right margins to be as small as possible.

already done that dude yeah i think it has something to do with how the page is coded but i got a case wherein a web page prints fine and just suddenly the printout get cutoff. any bright ideas?

Your hands are relatively tied when it comes to printing web pages in IE6 - you're pretty much at the dev's mercy (except for the margin/landscape trick).

Firefox and IE7 (dunno about Opera) allow scaling so if it's possible, try those browsers. IE7 scaling is actually very nice from my experience with it so far.
