Remove the Date, Time, URL in Internet Explorer
Letterhead Printing Tips simple instructions show you how to print in Internet Explorer with no margins, time, date, web address URL, or page numbers. You remove codes to customize the headers and footers to print your pages as you wish to print them. There are simple instructions complete with pictures and a chart of special codes for the page setup.
Remove the Header and Footer Codes and Set Margins
- In Internet Explorer go to File, then Page Setup, find the section labeled Headers and Footers.
- So you can return it to its original state copy down on a piece of paper the characters listed under the Header and Footer fields.
Then delete all of the characters in the Header and Footer fields. See the first image below as an example of what you may find entered there.
- Next, you want to set the top and bottom margins to 0.5 and the left and right margins to 0.25 so that the letterhead can be printed from top to bottom and from the left edge to the right edge. Paper usually has 0.5″ margins on all sides, the 0.25 side margins provide a little leeway.
that should do it, see the second image below as an example of how it should look when you are finished. If you don't set the margins correctly and you try to print the page, you will end up with the page being down too low, and the page cut off on the right side.
An example of what you may find in your page setup properties tab.
