Print problem = PCs do not print 2 pages. The printer graphic has a PRINT BUTTON action attached. Works fine in Mac Safari.

Pc’s with IE7 with WinXP sp3 and HP6135 Printer print only the first page.

SOLVED For both Firefox and IE you need to specify TWO pages are for printing. The clients version of Firefox = PAGES from 1 to 2 (two fields) The clients version of IE = PAGES 1-2 (one dash two in the single field)

The screen page is ONE LONG page - but stretches over 2 x A4 pages.

A better printer and driver would KNOW that one screen page would need two A4 pages.
