I host some monthly calendar on my site in 1024 X 1024 resolution. That is the best resolution I tested so that if you right click on the picture and choose print. It will print nicely on an A4 size paper.
I though that is easy enough. It turn out that user that choose file --> print, print out the whole page with image block and part of the calendar. People with IE 5.0 don't have this option when right click. People with Firefox don't have it either. Some of them save the image and print with ACDsee and complain the image is too small.

My question is how to print something easily and nicely from the browser to A4 or A3 size paper.

how about a custom css file for "print" media that sets display:none for things you don't want printed?

Thank you mindless. I don't think I have the ability to write a css file. Any easier solution?

yes a css will be great, but you can tailor make a software using some language that formats your copy paper, you can also add up options using the MS Office, but if you are continuously needing this option its better to build a small application, might take only about 2 hrs time
