pepperpig,

My printer is not working at the moment, could you copy and paste onto a word document or could you photograph it, eg. save page as ...

Not sure if you have Firefox.

Hope that helps, am sure there many others here with far more knowledge. If tis to do with your tree, think there's a thread on Gen, otherwise perhaps ask on tips.

Hiya Rachel,

how are you trying to do it?
Ctrl+p?
which should print the whole page,

or highlighting and selecting print? in which you can use " SELECTION," or" ALL"

well, ctrl+p is pressing the control key AND letter P together,
that should bring up a box with details of likely printers associated with your machine you can select ALL the pages , one page, OR just a selection from this box.

highlighting........
run the cursor over the whole text that you want to print( left click on the mouse, and run over the text) the text will show up blue, now RIGHT click any where on the blue and a menu box will show with cut, copy, paste, select all, and print
left click on print and a box similar to the first( above) option...


other that that it may be due to the way your printer is set up....
