Printer-friendly layout
When you print pages from the Just Business site, a printer-friendly version will be sent automatically to your printer.
This printer-friendly version is a 'streamlined' print version of our website's pages. It strips out some of the visual features of the web pages, so that they are not printed. Features of our pages that are not printed include the the secondary content area on the right-hand side of pages (that contains our Featured Resource), the site navigation, the background colours and some other cosmetic elements. While photos and images within the content of pages retain their colour, the text content of pages is printed in black on a plain (white) background.
We've done this to save your paper and your printer ink, leaving you with the important stuff: the content of our pages. As a result, we hope also that you will find printouts from our site more usable in terms of material presented in a handy, practical format for distribution to students.
Some web browsers are better than others at passing our printer-friendly layout correctly to printers. Inevitably, we have had to compromise on some areas of the layout, to account for their shortcomings. Still, the layout has been tested, and we are confident that it should cause the vast majority of people no problems. If however you do obtain poor or sub-standard results when printing from our pages, apparently caused by the page layout, please let us know so that we can correct the problem.
