when I print from the internet the right hand side of the page is always cut
off. How can I make it print the whole page? Making text smaller does not
help.

This has nothing whatsoever to do with Windows it is a function of your
printer driver. You either RTFM that came with the unit, or read the help
file.
 
Miss Tick is correct.

The page, as seen on the web site, is formatted for that purpose rather
than conveniently dimensioned to fit on a standard page size. Sometimes
there is a clickable spot on the page, to provide an
equivalent-but-formatted-for-printing, but most often not.

It is sometimes workable to copy the entire page into a word processor
such as Word, make adjustments there and print to a standard page width.
Sometimes it is a great deal of trouble. It depends on how the page was
set up.

Reading the fantastic manual (RTFM) is always useful. ;-)

Try Firefox.
In print-preview you can zoom the generated output (not just the view
like in IE).

Use any browser but Internet Explorer.

Seriously; that's been my experience.

If the computer you use isn't your own, _sometimes_ printing in
landscape mode will work, at the cost of killing more trees.
