How can I fix blank pages being printed from Internet Explorer?
1. Switch to an alternative browser when printing
This is just a mere workaround but you can also just copy-paste the webpage from one to another browser and print it that way. If the problem with printing blank pages appears solely on Internet Explorer, you can try and print from an alternative browser. We recommend using Opera, as this is a faster and more reliable browser. And, who knows, maybe after you’ve used it for a while, you might also consider switching to it for good. Because Opera comes with a lot of useful features that help to improve your productivity and overall web surfing experience. Besides the common features that you can find in any browser, Opera offers some exclusive tools such as integrated ad blocker, messenger tools, VPN with unlimited traffic, or battery saver. Not to mention that you can customize several workspaces or share your browser work between all your devices using a dedicated feature.
