emedicine's a pretty good resource. bit more succint than uptodate. on problem w/ it is that the formatting's always messed up whenever i've tried to print. the right margins keep getting paragraphs cut out. same prob w/ ie6 and firefox. any solution other than printing in landscape?

Just go FILE, PRINT, SAVE AS PDF, then open the pdf and print it - perfect

Oh, you're probably using Windoze right?

Just copy then paste all the text into MS Word or other word processing document, then print from there.

That's what I do. Plus, you can delete the stuff you don't need (references, etc). You might not be able to "save as pdf" if you do not have the full version of Acrobat or another pdf creation program.

As opposed to what? I've tried with Mozilla but it doesn't let you save as a pdf file...

Try "file" then "save page as." Then select from the drop down list found under the file name "save as type" and select "text."

Hope this helps

Well that comes out all boring. I guess at least it's not chopped off at the right side.

Print 2 pages on one sheet, landscaped. I ran into this same problem last year and found that that worked pretty well; the extra width of the landscaped view didn't cut off anything. Some printers don't let you print 2 pages on one sheet, so maybe it will work if you just try it landscaped. Hope that helps.
