Line 5: {{nutshell\|To print a Wikipedia page, select File → Print from your web browser, or click on the browser print icon.}} In general, printing a Wikipedia [[wp:article\|article]] is as simple as selecting ''Printable version'' from the ~~MediaWiki~~tools ~~sidebar~~menu in the top-right. Your browser probably has its own print preview feature. The [[MediaWiki]] software that Wikipedia runs on uses [[Cascading Style Sheets]] in order to specify the style and layout that is suitable to a printed version of the page. In modern browsers, the print function of the browser should automatically use the rules in the style sheets when you print an article, therefore the ''print'' command of your web browser is also useful. Line 12: ==Printable version== The default Vector skin has a selection in the ~~left~~tools ~~sidebar~~menu at the top-right for 'Print page'. This printable version is often misunderstood, as it is not exactly a print preview. It does not show page numbers, headers and footers applied by your browser. For a proper print preview, use the one supplied by your browser. Print page is not needed for any modern browser, as these browsers will parse the <code>media="print"</code> CSS styles included in the markup of Wikipedia pages. The print rules are applied automatically when the page is printed or previewed from the browser. Older browsers do not automatically apply print rules when using the browser print feature or don't apply them correctly. These browsers include:<ref>{{cite web \|title=CSS print media browser conformance \|url=http://www.codestyle.org/css/media/print-BrowserSummary.shtml \|work=Code Style \|accessdate=11 November 2009}}</ref><ref>{{cite web \|url=http://w3development.de/css/assigning_external_css/link.html \|title=Assigning external CSS > link \|accessdate=9 April 2009}}</ref> * Internet Explorer 6 and older * Netscape Navigator 4.73 and older * Firefox 5 and lower Printable version does not apply <code>@media print</code> rules from user style sheets— see below.
