I've got a web page to be printed, but no matter what I
do, it cuts off one side or the other. I've tried
adjusting the margins as small as they'll go, I've gone
through the troubleshooter, and nothing has helped.
Also, my printer eats any type of large-stock paper,
especially photo paper. I'll load it correctly, set up
the printer, and all of that, but it gets misaligned, and
tears the paper. What do I do!?!
 
Print it in landscape mode. Nothing much else you can do unless the printer
driver software includes a feature called "Fit to Page".

The webmaster/mistress has encoded the page larger than the size of the
paper. Of course you could email them and ask if they could make the page
smaller, but I doubt you would appreciate the response. With monitors
getting ever larger, instead of pages being coded at 800x600 as they used to
be, more and more are encoding at 1024x768 - or even larger. One of the
problems with encoding for different monitor and resolutions is that the
background tends to tile on larger resolutions, so the end result looks
awful. Most of us who design websites do our best to try them out on
different monitors and resolutions, but there's a limit to just how many you
can test on at any given time! (I run round my house pulling up the test
pages on different PCs and different montors). I'm not designing my pages
for a printer, but for folks to look at!
