When I read the weekly newsletter, there are articles or pieces of info I'd like to print out to keep but can not print them. My print preview even comes up blank. Is there a trick or is it a no-no to print info from the newsletter?

Can you try to copy and paste the information into notepad or Microsoft Word or any Word like program on your computer and print it out from there?

When I clicked on the print function to print it from my email it worked fine for me. Hope my suggestion works for you!

From your e-mail? Meaning, you printed the newsletter itself, not an article that it linked you to? I've never tried printing the newsletter but I'd expect it to work just like printing any other e-mail.

I did try print-previewing an article (in Firefox 2) like wheretogo said, and it came up blank for me too. There was just the Psych Central logo at the top of the first page followed by a couple of pages without any text. I'm slightly curious what stops the article from previewing or printing but I probably won't take the time to study the HTML "page source" and styles in enough detail to find out.

For years now I've been saving ink by copy-pasting articles, including Psych Central articles, into Windows Notepad and printing them from there. It's quicker than with Word and the 10-point Courier New font is really skinny and ink-saving. Of course, I use Win 98; I don't know if XP, Vista and 7 even include Notepad.

I have Windows XP and it came with Notepad. I, however, use another text program, Editpad, because it serves as more than a text program for me.
