Printing Instructions

The "Cranes on Parade" website uses inline frames to display the viewable pages that you see on your monitor.  Some pages have as many as three embedded frames, and will not print as you see them on your screen without a simple change to your printer preferences.
 

Your monitor is designed to view pages in landscape mode (more wide than tall), and so is the "Cranes on Parade" website.

 

   Follow these simple instructions

Your printer is now ready to print the page as you view it on the monitor.  NOTE: You will only be able to print exactly what you see on your screen.  If you wish to print something in a scrollable window, first position it so you can view it on your screen then print the page.
