You seem to group all printers into your specific situation.
Doesn't happen in the real world, or any of my PCs. Or, specifically, exact page layout. How can you expect a page layout to match the gazillion monitors, printers, and such, and compare them to yours?
Can you be more specific on your exact printer make and model, the specific page and it's layout, your native resolution of your specific monitor that will include lines both horizontal and vertical that will be included in the "Print page" request?
Portrait vs. landscape? Surely you jest. How is the "system" supposed to know?
Or is your post just a rant and rave?
For YEARS, I have been amazed at the standard printer output when printing from the internet.
1)What is the meaning of the last page, usually two lines of useless advertizing?
If intelligence went into the design, I wouldn't have to click through print preview, the two line advertizement would actually get printed AND there would be less wasted paper.
2)Just hitting "print" yields a portrait print that cuts off all the rightward data, prints the unneccessary junk on the left (ads or just empty space), thus cutting off, for example, the prices or results for which the page was being printed. Again the print preview can fix, but why not automatically either resize to print the landscape on the top of the portrait print OR force a landscape print (where an available option)?
I thought the internet was run by some of the smartest people in computerdom, but where is the intelligence here?
