IMHO print templates are overly difficult and never gained much
traction. In general, the print experience in IE sucks. Everyone hopes
this will get better in 7.0.

In any case, have you tried the CSS @media rule? It's easier to use
and might get you 70% of where you want to be.

That article is about as simple as it gets. My advice is to put your
thinking cap on, brew a pot of coffee, get a copy of Visual Studio 6 (for
writing an ActiveX control), and start studying!

this code it to be used when you write a client side application (in C/C++)
that hosts the IE browser. your app can then supply these callbacks to
change IE printing. it has little use in .net programming, as providing the
com interops are rather difficult for hosting the browser. .net supplies a
simple browser interop assembly (based on the vb com version), but it does
not support these extensions.
