It occurs often that when I want to print a web page in portrait format from InternetExplorer that
the rightmost part of the lines (or the pictures at the right) are cut off.

Switching to landscape printing mode is unconvenient for just a few letters.

I detected that if I adjust the scaling factor in the print setup (print->Layout->Scaling)
to 95% or 90% the full web page fits on a physical page.

Why isn't there an AUTODETECT option in InternetExplorer
which shrinks the scaling/zoom factor just as much so that the FULL web page fits on a printed page?

Is there maybe another solution ?

I use ieZoom and found it to do exactly what you want.

It is not free, but it is in expensive.
 
That was a stupid response.
What the OP needs is the "Fit-Width Printer" add-on


Here is the web page to get the program.

It is the third one down.

click on the link underlined as "this download page"
Don't expect a lot to happen, but it will install when it runs an Active X program.

Then close the internet browser (IE) and reopen the internet browser. You should see a small
printer icon with a W next to it in the tool bar. If not, right click on the tool bar and choose
"options" from the menu. Then in the options window you should find the icon in the left side
group. Select it and click on the ADD button to add it to the tool bar.

When you have this icon, use it when you want to print a web page. It will open your standard
printer control window, but also shrink the page to the paper. If you hold the Ctrl key down when
you click on this icon, it will give you a print preview to check the document.
