printing web pages

[Jim Dryden]

Eileen:

If you haven't blocked the "file / print preview" menu option in 
Netscape,  a patron could easily be instructed to view the total number 
of pages to be printed using this menu option. From "print preview," you 
could also decide on which or how many pages to be printed, then specify 
the range in the "print" menu option.
