I'm suddenly having trouble printing out items from the Discussions section here. This only started in the last few days. The first page will print out with all the writing in a narrow column on the left hand side of the page (as if doing a "print preview". ) After that, the pages will print out with the title of the discussion, and the page number, but the rest of the page will be blank. I have no problem printing from the Tunes or Sessions sections, or printing out anything else on my printer.
Is anyone else having this problem? Any ideas how to fix it?
Thanks. Zhenya
P.S. Just for the record, I often print out some of the longer discussions and read them on my commute on the NYC subway system. It helps!
Re: Problems printing from the Discussions section
Hmmm... the fact that it's only the discussions section that you have trouble printing is weird. If you were having trouble printing from the site in general, I might be able to figure out the problem but I don't see why printing a discussion would be any different from printing any other part of the site.
Very odd. And I'm afraid I can't offer any help. Sorry.
Re: Problems printing from the Discussions section
I agree it's odd. For now, I see that I can copy and paste into Word and the discussion prints out fine from there. So I'll do that, and periodically try to print directly to see if the problem has gone away.
I'm using a computer at work, and downloads and other changes are often done over the weekend, so perhaps that somehow affected something. (Or of course, I could have messed it up somehow myself.) Thanks anyway for trying to figure it out.

Re: Problems printing from the Discussions section
I've had a similar problem occasionally, not here though, I don't think. Sometimes I find that if you use the Ctrl P keyboard command to print, it doesn't work; but if you click on the page and use the mouse menu Print option, then it does. Weird. Give it a try, though.
ps - I'm also printing out discussions to read on my way home - the bright yellow background makes it a bit obvious that I'm not doing any work...
My problem is that if I print off the entire list in my tunebook in one batch, the titles and even portions of the piece end up on different pages. Here is what works for me:
1.Go to tunebook and scroll to bottom to view sheet music batch.
2. "Select all" in Firefox toolbar.
3. "Copy" in Firefox toolbar.
4. Open MS Word and 'paste' into document.
5. Adjust position of titles and tunes on page of doc. [important]
6. "Save as" Session Tunebook in folder on desktop.
7. Check print preview.......print batch!

Zhenya, just to give Jeremy more elements, what kind of computer (Mac, Windows 98, Windows XP?) and what kind and version of browser are you using?
