Printing Web Pages

Removing header and footer information (web address, title, etc) that gets printed on each page is simple with Internet Explorer, here's how:

1. Click the File menu, Page Setup

2. Find the "Headers & Footers" area and remove all the gibberish in the respective fields. Hit OK and you have it.

What if you want some of the header or footer? Just use the following in the header and footer fields:

&w Window title

&u Page address (URL)

&d Date in short format (as specified by Regional Settings in Control
Panel)

&D Date in long format (as specified by Regional Settings in Control
Panel)

&t Time in the format specified by Regional Settings in Control Panel

&T Time in 24-hour format

&p Current page number

&P Total number of pages

&& A single ampersand (&)

&b The text immediately following these characters as centered.

&b&b The text immediately following the first "&b" as centered, and the text following the second "&b" as right-justified.

Example, if you want the header to have the window (page) title and the URL, you would type:

&w &u

If you wanted to make it state the one who printed it, you could put something like:

&w &u Printed by Chris on &d

The only thing you need to keep an eye on is the spacing. To get a single space between items (like &w&u) you need to hit the space bar twice.
