Vista - Printing in HTML format

I have Internet Explorer 7.0 and recently I have to copy and paste what I
want printed from a website onto Microsoft Work. I am very certain that the
printer is not the problem, as it prints out just fine in Word. The probem is
when I try to print directly from a website and it prints out junk i.e.
html:/microstft.141816/526.hepj etc. and takes up 88 pages for what
should be two it prints in tiny font and any help would be greatly
appreciated. Thanks

Do you have an HP printer? There is a known problem with IE7 and HP
Director.

If so, you need the HP update from:

It is a Lexmark.

If this was an upgrade to Vista, uninstall and reinstall the printer.

Do you have the latest drivers from the Lexmark website? Word is formatted
text but a browser window is completely different than a word document and
if your drivers aren't up to date or Vista compatible, it may be having a
problem with printing a browser window.
