Print Without Graphics

When you print a Web page with IE, you probably are interested in just the text and not the graphics or the Ads.And if a Website has printer-friendly link , you are done!!

But what if it doesn't....??

Tell your IE to print your page, minus images.

* Open Notepad and type:


IMG{display:none!important;}
Download: NoImages.css[right-click and select: Save Target as]


* Save as 'Imageoff.css'


When you are ready to print...

* Select Tools ==> Internet options ==> 'Accessibility' button

* Check 'Format Documnts using my style sheet' box

* Click Browse, navigate and select 'Imageoff.css' file and click Ok

* Click Ok


IE will stop displaying most of the images. After printing, if you want your IE to display images again, Uncheck the 'Format documents' box.
