Print in 6 easy steps

Step 01

Choose your printable

Open the puzzle, calendar, planner, checklist, or template you want to print.

Step 02

Use the Print button

Click the green Print button on the printable page. It opens your browser print dialog with the printable area ready.

Step 03

Check page size

Use Letter size in the US or A4 in most other regions. Most printables are designed to fit one standard page.

Step 04

Set scale and margins

Choose 100% scale or Fit to printable area. Use Default or Minimum margins so nothing gets cut off.

Step 05

Remove browser extras

Turn off headers and footers if your browser adds the URL, date, or page number at the top or bottom.

Step 06

Print or save as PDF

Print immediately, or choose Save as PDF to keep a copy on your device for later.

Best print settings

These settings work well for most home printers and browser print dialogs.

Destination

Your printer, or “Save as PDF” if you want a digital copy.

Pages

All pages, unless you only need one specific sheet.

Paper size

Letter 8.5 × 11 in or A4, depending on your printer paper.

Orientation

Portrait for most printables. Use Landscape only when the page says so.

Scale

Start with 100%. Use “Fit to printable area” if anything is cut off.

Margins

Default or Minimum usually works best.

Headers & footers

Off, so the page does not show browser URL/date text.

Background graphics

On, if the printable has light shaded boxes or design accents you want to keep.

Quick troubleshooting

The printable is too small

Set Scale to 100%. If it is still small, switch from “Fit to page” to “Actual size.”

Edges are getting cut off

Use “Fit to printable area” or change margins from Minimum to Default.

URL or date appears on paper

Open More settings in the print dialog and turn off Headers and footers.

Design boxes are missing

Enable Background graphics in your browser print settings.
