  19. Printing Web Pages • Sometimes a Web page will print on multiple pages because the page does not fit on one piece of paper. However, you can specify the information you want to print. • Tip: Before you print, you should view the page in Print Preview to determine if you want to print the entire page or only a selection. If you do not need to print the entire page, you can choose to print only part of the Web page.

To Print An Entire Web Page • Locate a page on the national Geographic Web site (http://www.nationalgeographic.com) that has information you want to print. • Click File, and select Print Preview.
