Printing from IE6

[Bob Smedley]

I get part of the right hand side of the page cut off when I print web pages
now and again using IE6 SP1. Didn't IE have a fit to page print option? What
happened to it?

I found that too. I ended up reducing the margins of the page in IE.

reducing margins does not work. still being cut off.

This is a web page design problem, you will have to print in landscape for
this type of page. Also changed at IE>file>page set-up

I have the same problem.

It goes away if you reduce the Left and Right margins in
Page Setup to 0 (zero) - this will set them to your
printers minimum limits.

I think this problem started whith IE5. MS seem to have
started using a (Java?) based printer at that time and I
don't think it takes the Page Setup margins into
consideration when laying out the page. Seems to lay out
the page according to the printer limits and then "trim"
it to fit the margins????

Many users of my work's website cut and paste info from IE
into something like Word just so they can print the pages
without lines being cut off on the right hand side.

MS really need to look in to this one.
