Decide if you'd like the article to print with or without step-by-step images attached. Pick Text only or Include images when asked.
- Printing an article with pictures will use more printer ink, but it will help make the article easier to understand.

Print the more printer-friendly version of the article.
- If you don't immediately see a print dialogue, you may need to manually print the article. If you are on Windows, press Ctrl + P at the same time to print the article manually. On a Mac, press ⌘ Cmd + P at the same time to print the article manually.

Warnings

Remember that wikiHow articles are edited and improved often. If you print an article, then you won't get those changes. If you plan on keeping your article around for a long time, then you should occasionally go back and see if any changes to the article have been made, and if the changes are significant enough, then you might want to consider printing the article again.
- If you have a wikiHow account, then you can add an article that you print to your watchlist so that you'll get an email whenever the article is edited.
