Internet Explorer 6 printing problems

Guest

I am using MS Internet Explorer 6. When I want to print a webpage I click on
file, go to print preview and click on that and a blank page appears. On the
bottom of the page is "file://c:\windows\temp\mjshr.html". I made up the html
page name because I forgot the real one. It seems that either windows or IE
6 is trying to store the html document in the windows\temp folder before it
prints it. On other machines the name of the page appears like this
"http://www.expert-exchange.com/Micellaneous/qAskQuestion.jsp" and it prints
just fine.

How can I change my printer settings, either in windows or IE to go right to
the website and print? Is this done in Internet Explorer? I am using
Windows 98
