How do I print part of a page on a website?

image

If you print from the Internet you can have a lot of pages. Ads and other text you do not want can print out too.

If you highlight only what you want and print it, you will save paper.

You can do this in Google Chrome.

Type this web address:

https://www.ontario.ca/page/employment-ontario

Instead of printing the whole article, select (pick) the information you want by highlighting it with your mouse.

Highlight the top part of this site.

Left click at the start of the word Employment and highlight by holding down your finger (drag) on the left mouse button and moving your mouse down to the workers (see example on page 22).

Lift your finger when you are done.

Right click on the blue highlight. Make sure you use the button on the right side of the mouse and that you click right on the highlight.

Select (pick) Print.image

You will see a screen showing you just this part of the site.
