Hi, I have a question about printing posts and the responses. When I print out posts I've made & the responses, I don't get all the text. If I was to print this, I would be missing (en I, If I) and any other text that would be on the right side of post. I get everything (ads) on the left side. I print them out plus others that might be helpful & keep them in a notebook out in the garage when I'm working on the vette. Any suggestions?

This has to do more with your printer settings than anything else, I think. I have the same issues when attempting to print something directly from a web page.
What I now do is copy the page/text into a MS Word document, then print it from there. This way, I can have a hard copy, as well as a saved copy on my puter, or even burn to a disc.

I left click and drag to highlight the text I want, then right click on it, then left click print...when the print box comes up I select the..Print Selection option, then print, seems to work OK for me.

There is a little box at the bottom left of every thread that has these two links in it:

Printable%20version Printable version Email%20this%20topic Email this topic

You should use the "Printable version" link to print a thread.  This will remove all the ads and just give you the meat of the thread with proper formatting for printing.

Thanks for all the advice. I never noticed the "printable version" tab at the bottom of the page.
