Printing

I recently ran a marathon and downloaded it on to the site and then when looking at it on the analyzer page, with the map and the mileage split times, I am unable to print the whole page out. I can print the map but the table with the times and heart rates cuts out half way across. Can you advise me on what I may be doing wrong or could you give me some ideas as to what pages are best to print out for looking at the mile splits and possibly the route of the course, although the mile splits and the heart rates are more important for me.
When using Internet Explorer, go to File/Print Preview. There is a little icon in the second space. Click on that and you will get Page Setup. Click on Landscape, then clear out the writing in the Header and Footer bars and then click OK. Note that you have 2 pages that will be printed. You can choose which page to print in setup.
Click on Print and setup your printer and which pages you wish to print.

The problem I'm having is on the analyzer page. I can print the map, elevation chart and the mile splits off OK now (thank you for that). The only problem I'm finding now is that the run I'm trying to print off was a marathon so there is 26X1 mile splits and on the print review page it shows just miles 1-16. I scroll down this so it shows miles 16-26 but then when i print it off it reverts back to miles 1-16. I'm sure its me just doing something wrong but i was just wondering if you could point me in the right direction as to what I'm doing wrong.
Since it isn't capturing the lower part, printing with a screen shot is necessary. Scroll down to the next section you want.
All keyboards have a Print Screen or Prt Scr button. When you push that, a picture is made of the page at which you are looking and copied to the clipboard. You can then open up Paint which is free with all Windows. It is available under the StartMenu/Accessories. Open Edit, then Paste (Ctrl+V) it in the new document. The picture is now in Paint as a document. The bad part of this is that you have to edit & cut away the different parts of the screenshot that you don't want then save. Paint doesn't make editing that easy. Other art programs do and you can use those for a quicker way of cutting out the part that you do want. You can then print from the "Print" under "File" or with the icon on your toolbar.
The easiest way to have the screenshot you want is to use a program that is made for screenshots. With this program you can choose the exact area that you want with several different features. There are hundreds of programs available to do this, most of them are shareware. There are many freeware programs that also work well. For this procedure I recommend this program (http://www.donationcoder.com/Software/Mouser/screenshotcaptor/). It is a freeware that asks you to register for the free license. It is well worth it. It is Donationware which simply means if you use it a lot, they appreciate a donation of your choice.
The reason I chose this one is that it has the capability of activating the printer. Many do but this one gives you a print preview which many or most of the other programs do not. This enables you to choose portrait or landscape view as well as placement on the page.
After installing the program, play with it a little bit to become familiar with it. Then go to your browser page where you have scrolled to the position you want. Use the "Grab Screenshot of selected area" tab. Then place your mouse in the upper left corner of the place you want to start and drag it to the opposite corner of where you want to end. Snap, it is finished. If you are satisfied with it, you are ready to print.
