I cant print directly from the internet using ie but if i save a page to the desktop and then print it, it is ok. I am trying this at a college and none of the computers in this department print from ie but printers everywhere else have no problem. Hell me with this so i can look smart and tell the network admins what is wrong so i can get brownie points and work for them

well dear
try one of the following In the files menu click on page setup,
then click on printer button
a dialog box will appear and see if the printer you are connected with is selected their. If it is not then select it from the list.
If you are using a printer on the network then repeate the above steps but at the printer dialog click the network button. here typein the name of your printer and select ur network.
also try to select "print background images" from advanced tab of your internet options menu.
hope that solves ur problem

It's *probably* a matter of policies set on your computer by the administrator, I could help you change them but it's an eleborate procedure and the admin won't like it, he changed the policies of IE to cut down printing costs, try executing regedit.exe, if that won't work you can be sure it's disabled on purpose.
