Hi Mark,

Though not an optimal solution (if there is one), in the print dialogue
you can set your printer to print only certain pages (in the print pages
range) by editing in the From... and To... boxes.  There is another
approach, which is, turning off the virtual cursor and looking at the
page as a sighted person might see it (which JAWS doesn't interpret very
well).  However, in my limited trying of this just now I couldn't (as a
blind person) make a selection work.

Subject: Print Selection Options


Hello List,

I hope I can make my question clear for someone to answer.  For example,
when in a Word document, you can select text using JAWS by holding down
the
shift key and select text.  This will enable you to print only the text
selected if desired.  When on a web page, if the shift key is held down
to
select text and you try to print only the selected text, the "print
selected" option in the print dialog will not appear.  The odd thing is
that
if a sighted person holds down the left mouse button to select text, the
"print selected" option will appear.  All that being said, how can a
person
select text using JAWS on a web page to enable the printing of only the
selected text?  Hope this makes sense...

Thanks in advance,
Mark
