Unable to print only certain pages of email?

Previously in 2003 Outlook my boss was able to print only select pages of an
email, now with the Outlook 2007, she is unable to do this, and the entire
msg prints. Is it possible to print only the pages needed or is this option
gone for good? Her computer is a Dell, networked with 2 other computers. XP
program on all, we have MS Small Business 2007 on all 3 computers, if this
information is helpful. Thanks for any replies.

Is there a "free" fix that can be downloaded from the Microsoft website?
Thanks for the reply, but I need to find a fix that doesn't cost a thing as I
was the one that requested this upgrade of software for the office. And to
ask my boss to purchase a "fix" would not make her happy.

used IE's print dialog for HTML, Outlook 2007 uses Outlook's native print
function and it doesn't offer as many options as IE did.

I'm not aware of any free utility from Microsoft - they don't consider it
broken, so I don't expect anything from them. You could save it to an
electronic format (such as PDF - there are free PDF printers available) then
print from the PDF.

Or, if the message is HTML (or you are willing to convert to HTML), use the
option to view in browser - instructions from the web page:
From the Message tab, choose Other Actions, View in Browser then print from
the browser.

If the message is not HTML, open the message in its own window, then click
Other Actions, Edit Message, then on the Options tab, change to HTML.
