Internet Explorer only prints frames individually

Question

When you attempt to print Web pages that contain frames either by clicking Print on the File menu or by clicking the printer button on the toolbar, Internet Explorer prints each frame individually by default any 'greys-out' the other two options ('as laid out on screen' & 'only the selected frame').  Has anyone found a way around this??

This is just a guess, but go to Internet Options in Tools and select Security.  Click the custom button.  Place a dot in the disable circle in front of  IFrames.  Also, you may get the help you need here at http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;273108&Product=ie600.    IE is designed to print frame by frame.  Another reason for your problem in IE 6 may be a setting in your Firewall.  If things print properly with the Firewall disabled, you need to change settings.  Finally, check your printer's support pages.  Good luck. Message Edited by paindoc on 06-29-2004 06:47 PM
