Q: When I print specific web pages, a portion of it is either cut-off or I get extra pages at the bottom.  How can I fix this?
A: Well, this is actually a result of how the web page is 'translated' to your browser program (Internet Explorer, Netscape Navigator, Mozilla Firefox etc.).   I won't get into the specifics of the technology, but there are two solutions that work around this.

The first solution is:
-On the more thoughtful websites click on a link/button that says something like:
'Printable Version', 'Print Page', 'Printer Friendly' or something similar.
-These links/buttons usually are at the top, bottom, or in the margin of the page you are viewing
1. Click on this link
-A new page will appear with some formatting removed
2. Print from that window usually by going to the File > Print menu

If there is no 'Printable Version' link/button, you can use the second solution:
-In Internet Explorer (In other web browsers, the option will be in a similar location)
1. Select/highlight what you want to print using your Mouse
2. File > Print
-Under the 'Page Range' section:
3. Select 'Selection'
4. Click the 'Print' button
-The text you selected/highlighted is printed
