Issue descriptionUserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/63.0.3239.132 Safari/537.36 Example URL: https://tdstelecom.com/shop/tv/channellineup/channel-listings.html?city=Black+Earth&state=WI&key=FQXiK Steps to reproduce the problem: 1. Navigate to https://tdstelecom.com/shop/tv/channellineup/channel-listings.html?city=Black+Earth&state=WI&key=FQXiK 2. Ctrl-P / Click Print button 3. View print preview or view resulting print What is the expected behavior? Print preview and resulting print job does not have excess blank pages What went wrong? The print preview and resulting print job have excess blank pages at the end. When printing on Chrome in Linux (CentOS 7, Version 64.0.3282.167 (Official Build) 64-bit), Firefox (both Linux & Windows), or Internet Explorer (11.0.9600.18893), the resulting print does not have excess pages. However, in Firefox and Internet Explorer, the channel table has the same padding as on the webpage (20px top and bottom per td element, for example). It appears that Chrome attempts to "shrink" the webpage for printing, by removing unnecessary padding. In Linux, this is successful, and results in a table without unnecessary padding, and no excess blank pages. In Windows, however, a number of blank pages about equal to the length of the original padding are added to the end of the document. When in the print preview, if More Settings > Margins > Minimum or None is selected, then the excess blank pages are removed. If viewing the page in Chrome Dev Tools, and the Print rendering is used, no excess space is shown. If this cannot be fixed in Chrome, what steps would it take to alter the CSS of the website to result in no excess space being printed? Does it occur on multiple sites: N/A Is it a problem with a plugin? N/A Did this work before? N/A Does this work in other browsers? Yes Chrome version: 63.0.3239.132 Channel: stable OS Version: 6.1 (Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2) Flash Version: A PDF of the print job is included, which shows the excess pages.

Able to reproduce this issue on reported version 63.0.3239.132 on windows 7,10 , Ubuntu 14.04 and Mac 10.13.3. But issue is fixed on latest stable 64.0.3282.167. @Reporter: Please upgrade chrome to latest stable and check the issue. You can download latest builds from https://www.chromium.org/getting-involved/dev-channel. As issue is not reproducible on latest stable closing this issue as Wont-fix. Thanks! |
