printing web sites

When viewing a web site it is designed to fill the width of the screen. But
when I go to print if off, it prints out in "portrait" and not "landscape" as
I have set it for my printer. Hence, the layout of viewed page and the
printed page are different.

What can I do so that a web site will print out landscape like I see it on
my monitor?

Thank you,

Alan

Check margin settings in IE.

If you haven't already, upgrade to IE7. The print preview, shrink functions,
orientation and margin control are great and save a lot of paper too!

If you're already on IE7, go to print preview and do all your manipulating
from there.
