    IE8 web page printing problems
    « on: August 08, 2010, 04:34:42 PM »
    Windows XP with IE8
    On a web page, eg this one, if l select the the down arrow next to the print icon, and then print preview, all that is shown is the header and footer with nothing in between, hence nothing is printing.
    Yet before, l could see the complete web page which was to come out on the printer.
    Is there a seting that should be altered somewhere?

    On every web site or just one in particular? Have you tried printing to see if the page actually prints? What is different or new since the last time it worked properly?

      Blimey Allen that was quick!
      It's every website, and the print preview just shows the headers and footers, and that is just what is getting printed.
      Print Preview was working fine a couple of days ago and nothing has changed as far as l know.
      Have done all the usual scans and nothing untowards has crept in!

      Okay, just as a test what happens with other browsers (pick one - Firefox, Opera, Safari, Chrome)?
