Printing Internet Explorer

Often when printing from Internet Explorer the web page will be cut off on the right hand side. To get as much content on one page as possible you can edit the margins in I.E. by going to File > Page Setup > and entering 0 in all four margin boxes. It will accept these numbers but in reality will default to its smallest allowable margins: 0.25, 0.25, 0.25 and 0.19. The only detractor is that you will then lose both the header and the footer which means no URL, page title, date or number of pages. This could come in handy when printing maps or charts or when you just need all the wording printed off in one piece.
