Email Attachments

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.
