I can not print webpages... but all other things will print. What is going on?

1. Go to Control Panel
2. Click Set Program Access and Defaults
3. Most likely Custom is selected, click the down arrows off to the right to expand the field. Even if custom is not selected do the same for the field that is selected.
4. Under choose a default web browser, select Internet Explorer
5. Then hit Ok

Now try to print again and see if this helps out

That did not work. After I click print, nothing happens. It seems like the interenet explorer doesn't pick up my printer

When you print, open the Properties window and then look for things like "Page Layout", Shrink to fit, or scaling properties.

To tell you the truth, I started to use Firefox long ago because IE wouldn't print right. I constantly save stuff to a PDF printer. It creates a .PDF file. It contains the URL at the top. It is possible to get rid of it, but I forgot how. There are some free versions on the web.

Epson made a special Add-on for IE just for printing, so I don't think it's you.
