Yes. You can't print with cntrlP if you don't have a "virtual" screen.
You WON'T have a virtual screen if you have randomly set the size smaller
than the height in lines of the page you want to view/print. i.e. Arachne
won't TRY to generate a "part" of a virtual screen.
Example: The options|preferences screen is about 2 + 1/2 screens high in
640x480 Fullscreen mode. That's about 960+240=1200 lines high.
It can NEVER be printed if you have selected Virtual screens 1000.
Interestingly, that screen is only 2 full screens high in 800x600 so it's
still 1200 lines total height. i.e. It is resolution independant. :)
So, what have you got Virtual screens set at ? You are not limited to the
choices in Preferences. You can manually enter any number you like - such
as 50,000 if you have enough memory and patience.
For the Preferences page, you will need to select a number bigger than 1200.
Why bigger ? I don't know. Try 2000.
Of course, the 2 + 1/2 screens high mentioned above was just a guess. ;-)
