Hi at all,
I have a long HTML page with some photos (2 large and 2 little)
If a user print the page I'ld want that he can print as I want like a pdf
file.
Is it possible?
I.e.:Print margins and new page
Best it'ld be to ca eject paper when I wanto because I do not want that any
printer cut the photos

Unfortunately, what you're looking for is not really possible when
printing in the browser. Even if support for print styles was more
complete, you don't know the paper size. Could be 8.5x11 inches, could be
A4.
