[Guest]

Cannot see contents of the page in print preview and when I print only the
header & footer appear. Have tried disabling Auto-Select option for encoding
in the View menu - doesn't work. Don't have software discs as IE came with
Windows XP when I bought the computer 2 yrs ago. Has anyone had this problem
and can you cure it?

Hi,
Check page setup> margins, per this article:
Print Preview Is Blank and You Cannot Print Pages from Internet Explorer
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=312446

Or, try reinstalling your printer drivers.

Much less likely, but malware (adware, spyware, parasites, etc.) can cause
printing problems in IE. Download and run CWShredder, Ad-aware, Spybot.

Also note the security tips and other important information on that page.
