Printing Webpages

1) Before Printing, Be Sure you have Used the Page Setup Option  ;  File > Page Setup)

2) This is the Page Setup button. Use this to set paper size, headers, footers, orientation, and page margins

3) Click on it to open this window.

Firstly, make sure you have the correct paper size selected (A4). The header and footer section lets you add (or remove) extra information about the document (see the list of code values listed below). The main thing is to look at is the page margins. Most of the time these margins are set too large reducing the printable area of the document. Try a setting 0.5"  ( or 5 millimeters) for all margins seems to get the best results. Try adjusting these margin values and see how it affects the preview image. Remember to use the zoom buttons to make sure text and pictures aren’t missing off one of the margins. If it looks OK in preview, then it should print out fine.

Header and footer codes

&w = Print the window title, which is usually the title of the Web page
&u = Print the URL (address) of the Web page
&d = Print the date (short-format)
&D = Print the date (long-format date)
&t = Print the time in regional format.
&T = Print the time in 24-hour format
&p = Print the current page number
&P = Print the number of pages in document
&& =Prints an ampersand (&)
&b =The first time this code appears, the text that follows is centred. The second time the code appears, the text that follows is aligned with the right margin
