Printing the forums - page cuts off

When i try to print a forum discussion, the right hand side of the text gets cut off. Can any one advise if it is possible to change the printer settings to make it fit to page?

Alternatively, would it be possible for the Proz.com team to offer a 'print friendly' version of the forum, without the navigation bars etc?

Thanks

It must depend on the printer Jun 22, 2005

I just tried it, and I find that my printer automatically reformatted it so that although the box containing the text of postings is narrower, the text is reformatted to shorter and more lines, and nothing is lost. This is not due to any special setting I made.
(My printer is a Brother DCP 8020)

I second this suggestion. I once tried to copy some forum postings into a Word document to send it to a friend, but it took really long because when copying and pasting, it would copy all the pictures and the table formatting. Would be great to have a printer-friendly version for the forum postings.
