Hi , i've been testing out my new epson stylus dx7400 printer , it prints well and perfectly with color and stuff.

When looking on different websites such as imdb, yahoo,youtube through the "print preview" in Firefox browser it seems like it cant get all the length onto the A4 paper size page.

The width is fine just the length, is there anyway to adjust the size to automatic or something to make any web page i visit and print come out all perfectly without any splitting image or sentences apart if you get what i mean.

If there's a way to set it to auto adjsut the page to fit an a4 size paper on it would great isntead of having to "print preview the page all the time.

For example if there was a picture or something in the middle of the web page i want to be able to print out the page and not have the image cut in half onto page 2 because there wasn't enough space on page 1 to fit the rest of the image or words.

  1. Not really, web pages are designed to be viewed on a screen, not printed. If you're on a Mac, you can try setting your page-setup to something large, say A3 (to get as much on as possible), then 'printing' the page as a pdf and then print that pdf (since a pdf print will easily let you shrink to fit A4) - don't know what lets you do that in Windows. If an image is especially important to you, you can often open it in its own window by right-clicking, of course, and printing just that.


  2. try to change the settings of the paper, Letter for example it will be fit

  3. Try this

    Right click anywhere on your desktop

    Click properties

    Click settings

    Change the screen resolution to 1280 X 1024
