    I am using IE 7.0.5730.11
    I use the print button on the IE menu. Sometimes I get the entire screen printed and sometimes the right edge is truncated and does not print.
    How can I print the entire screen all the time?

    Pete, that did not work, got same results from original printout.

    Steve, that helped but I still did not get entire page.

    Broni, that worked but is not what I wanted, I want a portrait printout.

    I suspect it is the way the website is written.

    Try this ....

    File > Print Preview and reduce the magnification to <100% from the right hand drop down list > Print.

    Pete, on 'Print Preview...' the entire page is not displayed. What's that about?

    This one is my online banking bill pay page. You can't see that unless you bank at the same bank.

    Is that the only page that behaves this way? If so I return to the comment that it is the way the page is written.

    No it is not the only one. Just now it is the only one I want to print. I'll look for other pages and let you know.

    Because of what Pete said, sometimes it may be the only way.
