Printing a web page:
There are several things to consider when attempting to print a page. First off, consider the amount of images and color on the page; the default of many printers is to print at a considerably high quality in color. You may not wish to waste so much ink. Also, look around on the page when reading things such as articles; the website maintainer(s) may have provided a link to a "printer-friendly" version (this means that the graphics will be limited, and the text will be formatted in a more traditional manner). To print without changing any options, press the "Print" button in the standard buttons toolbar. To select printing options before actually printing, select File >> Print.

Saving a page:
There are several reasons why you may wish to save a website or page to your own computer. One of the more popular reasons is to simply view the coding that makes up the page, and learn new techniques. To save a web page select File >> Save As. It will save only the HTML document; no additional images or folders will be created.

Editing a page:
Rather than downloading a page with the above method, there are two other ways to get right into editing the current page in your browser. The first is to simply select File >> Edit Page. This will open the page in Netscape Composer for editing in a WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) style.

If you wish to edit the actual HTML, you can select View >> Page Source to open the source code to the page in a text-only window within Netscape (you can copy and paste this text into Notepad, if you wish).
