Printer failing to print things from a particular website, blank spaces rather than it appears on print screen?
-
Hi. I'm trying to print out a number of poems from a website. Here's one for example: http://www.lib.rochester.edu/camelot/teams/ekttfrm.htm I copy and paste the top frame in its entirety, paste it into Word (most recent version) and everything looks hunky dory. A quick look at the print preview window shows everything as it ought to be, yet when I actually print the damn thing I just get lots of white spaces with the occasional scrap of text - these tend to be the text notes from the right side of the page, but this is inconsistent. Why this is happening is a mystery to me. I've tried saving the file in different formats (pdf) and printing, using different fonts and it still did the same thing. This happens for every poem I copy and paste from the site. If you press ctrl-p in browser the print preview is even stranger, it's just lots of white space. By the way, I can print other things no problem, I have plenty of ink. The problem is just limited to stuff from that website. Also, I'm using a HP F2480 printer if this helps, although I'm fairly certain this isn't a hardware issue since other stuff is printing just fine. Rather, I think the webpage has some strange formatting that is freaking my computer out. Please, is there anything I can do to get the text from that site to print out?

Answer:
Trying using a different web browser to view/print the page... sometimes sites will be coded in ways where Internet Explorer may have difficulty printing while Firefox or Chrome works, or Firefox may have trouble where Internet Explorer doesn't.
