When I print an internet page it always cuts off the right
hand side of the page. Is their a setting in windows that
will fix that problems? I'm printing on a HP LaserJet 5p
& I dont see a "Fit Page" option.
 
Jeff,

I'm not sure what you mean by "cuts off". However, if you mean that it does
not print anything in the right margin of the page, typically between 1/4"
and 1/2", it is probably because the printer cannot print so close to the
edge of the page. You can tell Internet Explorer to avoid that area by
specifying larger margins in File/Page Setup. Let us know if that doesn't
resolve your problem.

So I'm guessing that their isn't a way to set the margins
default to 0 so i wont have to always change the margins
setting everytime I print?

Jeff,

We can set the values to 0 (zero) in IE but the minimum value it will keep is dependant on the printer driver being used. For
example, if I use a HP LaserJet 8100 then the minimum value it will keep is 0.25 and if I set it lower than this then it will
change back to 0.25 but if I use Generic/Text Only it will keep the minimum value of 0.00.

What ever value you type in is stored in the registry at HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\PageSetup but even
though this reflects your 0.00 entry the GUI will still show the minimum allowed by the print driver.

I have the same issue. It has nothing to do with margins. The conten
of the Web page is wider than the screen. IE should have an option t
print the truncated right hand portion on a second page. I just don'
know where it is either.
