Angry "Printable" Document Problem

I have to print an old order as proof of purchase from e-buyer, to send a blown power supply back to the manufacturer.

I clicked on "Click here for printable version", but when I print it, I lose a third of the screen to the right hand side which coincidentally has the date of purchase and original order number on lol.

With me being a total novice at owt like this, is there any way of resizing something like this to fit on A4?? I have tried the printing prefences "Fit on page" thing in the layout tab, but didn't work, just did the same as before.

Getting annoyed with it now

Thanks,

Andy.

I tried setting the right and left margins in the "File/Page Set up" on the webpage to 0, and got a bit more, but still losing the important info on the right hand side.

Sorted.

Changed the paper size to A3. Writing is a bit small, but all the info is there.

Could you have printed it in landscape mode instead of portrait?
