I have checked this function on an iphone, and using Safari it gives the same result, ie will not give a printer friendly print out. The Display on both iPad and iPhone is correct on the screen, but the error must be somewhere in the printer driver.

A lot of ebayers are having issues with Safari browser.

Best to use chrome or Firefox.

Thanks for the suggestion. I have tried Brave and Firefox. Both allow the invoices to be printed, but both have the problem of the old Safari offering:

the font size being too small,

the money amounts not visible in portrate mode

even in landscape mode, the font size is about 8pt, or at the most 10pt, which is too small for comfort.

huge amount of wasted space which could be used for a larger font.

Is there a way of increasing the font size?

Printer is a Canon MB5100

Further info, on the “printer friendly” preview it shows perfectly in portrait mode in all three browsers. It’s only whe click ing the printer icon that things go wrong.
