How to print full Public Health webpages without the right side of the page cutting off

By default, most Internet browsers set their printing margins to 0.75" on the left and right side of the printout. Left at this setting, if you print any of our webpages, part of the right side of the webpage will be cut off.
To print the full width of our pages, just use your page options to adjust the margins to 0.25" in both the left and right margins before printing.

It will print only your selected text and graphics (if graphics are adjacent in your text selection) and ignore everything else outside your selection.
That's it!
