Printing slowly, printing quickly

Some of our visitors may be experiencing problems when they're printing out journals which they've found via Medline or via linking through from the library catalogue. Printing might not be simultaneous and it can take a few minutes before the document appears.

This seems to only happen when you try and print the article, which is in the form of an Adobe .pdf file, directly through your browser which is Internet Explorer 7.

If you are experiencing this problem, it is better to save the document or .pdf file to your network space or USB drive using the save icon which appears in the browser window with the document, opening it using the Adobe Reader which has an icon on the desktop which looks like this:



And printing it from there. The clearest method is to open Adobe Reader and then open the file you want to print using the same method as Microsoft Word and the printing process is very similar too.

If you have any queries, please ask a member of the library staff.
