| 222469 | 2004-03-14 04:57:00 | Hi i am doing some surfing of info for an assignent and have been printing some pages of stuff off. But it seems to be cutting the bottom lot off? i am using Mozilla Firebird, and as an example i have the 5 word header of essay on one page and the info article written on another but it cut the bottom off this and no 3 rd page printed? have i set something wrong somewhere? is it resizing or something???? not much good to keep if it wont print the whole article ........ this is for personal reading, not planning on reprinting or copying any of this stuff, but would like the whole article, this has happened twice in the last 10 mins. any ideas? beetle |

| 222473 | 2004-03-14 21:42:00 | You could try File>Page set up. But it only gives the option to shrink width to fit page.I might print off some pages and see if they fit flush. Do you have a url of a page that caused this when u printed it? |

| 222476 | 2004-03-15 21:02:00 | I just had a look at the page,and once the screaming died down i used the print preview option in firefox and that page would indeed print very poorly under firefox. IE6 made a hash of it as well,but only after its print preview displayed that it would print perfectly. |
