I don't go to the Hotmail site at all. I use Thunderbird and an add-on called Webmail
http://webmail.mozdev.org/
with the Hotmail component (Also Yahoo, as well, incidentally) and this actually downloads the mail (both my .co.uk and .live.com accounts), just like normal POP3, quite transparently and they print as normal.

This reply has to do with printing... as a whole. I always look for the 'link' within a page to see/get the print version. I print out many things.. Most are for references and others are printed just so I can get off this machine for a little while... lol
Good point Leo.. and thanks

Bad, unintuitive UI design by Microsoft. I see new users struggle with the new interface regularly. Instead of text only commands, they should put them back on "button" backgrounds to make them more obvious.

my issue is i normally print a selection of text..so this means extra steps, i have to open print page..Then cancel print dialogue box (as selection is not given as option)..Then highlight selection and print. Add to this I normally go preference >print greyscale. Previously this setting was remembered..now I have to go in and reselect each and every time I print, and that is often several emails in sucession

Before Live Hotmail, I was able to highlight the portion of an email or web page that I wanted and print off the selected area via File > Print > Selection etc.
This route now produces a nil result.
By using the Print Icon, I obtain the whole message/page in a new window but the Selection option is greyed out.
It is highly irritating to have unnecessary problems thrust upon an unsuspecting public - please correct the problem asap Hotmail.

I was having problems printing with the new format on Hotmail til someone sent me this site. I was very happy to find the solution to my problems but still can't seem to print pictures that are sent to me?

I am still having a problem with printing even using the hotmail print button. all I get is the header and footer but no other print???

Thank you. so simple, so hard to see even when you are looking for it. Jjanice could try right clicking on the picture and selecting "save image". Much easier to do stuff with photos outside of hotmail.

hello sir
i want to know the way in which i can print the whole page of the email in hotmail account ( the displayed whole screen) of the account just as in the yahoomail account

When I try to use Hotmail's own print button I find it is blocked by my pop up blocker. Switching off the blocker no longer works. It still acts as if it is switched on. What next?
