This is how I just printed a web page from A171dev on my HP600
Deskjet.
Pressed " * " to make the page full screen.
Pressed Ctrl+P to make a bitmap (BMP) full page shot.
Saved PAGE.BMP.
I used PictureView to convert to a .JPG.
I used Graphic Workshop for DOS to print the PAGE.JPG (it couldn't
display the .BMP, hence my conversion to .JPG).
For PictureView and Graphic Workshop, substitute whatever graphic
programs you have that will do the same job.
NOTE: the HP Deskjet 600 needed no tweaking at all - the graphics
program that you use should do all that - even a Windows, Linux or Mac
graphics prog should do the trick once you have a full-page bitmap.
Anybody got a simpler way ?
Regards,
Ron
