If you are using PHP on a Windows server then this might be an option:

Subject: HTML Printing problem.


Issue:
HTML files are to large to print from the browser. We are creating reports
that are ++5 mg in size. This is a real problem for the browser. We are on a
network and can print directly from the server but this means we must
convert the html to some printer friendly format. We are using many new
standards such as tbody and thead tags to give us consistent header on
each page of a printed document. This seems to cause problems with most
conversions that we have seen.

Any help with a solution?

I am aware of the printer functions in php but as far as I know you can not 
print an html document with them. It will just print the html code. 
Otherwords print the text. Also generating these reports with these 
functions would be a step back on the design because of the amount of ode 
needed to get the same results as the html handles automatically.

Is there away to print html on the server with php?
