Printing Information
How a page will look when printed varies by the browser used, print settings, and screen resolution chosen by each individual. Pay Statements and other Self-Service Actions will also print differently based on what information appears, which varies from person to person.
You can adjust how a page prints by going to the File > Page Setup menu in your browser, and adjusting the margins to allow more information to appear on a page. Some browsers, such as recent versions of Netscape and Firefox, have a "Shrink to Fit" feature that automatically fits information onto a page.
You can also select to print certain pages, such as only the first page, from the Print menu page.
