Printing a Web page in IE7

Internet Explorer 7 makes it possible to make various changes to how a web page will print. Here’s how:

· 1. Go to File>> Page Setup

· 2. In the ‘Margins’ boxes, type the necessary margin measurements in inches.

· 3. To setup the page to print either vertically or horizontally, choose the Portrait or Landscape options.

· 4. If you would like to print only specific information, you can type in Variables into the Header or Footer boxes (see table below).

Note: Variables can be combined with text (as an example; Page &p of &P).

To Print:	Type
Window title	&w
Page address (URL)	&u
Date in short format (as specified by Regional and Language Options in Control Panel)	&d
Date in long format (as specified by Regional and Language Options in Control Panel)	&D
Time (as specified by Regional and Language Options in Control Panel)	&t
Time in 24-hour format	&T
Current page number	&p
Total number of pages	&P
Right-aligned text (following &b)	&b
Centered text (between &b&b)	&b&b
A single ampersand (&)	&&

Additional Notes:

· If you would like to use millimeters for your margins, that setting can be changed at the Regional and Language Options:

Start>> Control Panel>> Regional and Language Options

To view or change how your web page will print, go to File>> Print Preview.
