Printing an embedded report

[Jodes]

I have a dashboard embedded to my website. I used to be able to right click > print without any problem, but now it seems my report does not want to print properly. The report is cut off. It seems to not want to scale properly.

I've tried all paper sizes and print options in the menu. My report size is a custom size at 2125x1375, but I also cannot print a report that is 16:9 (one of the PowerBI defaults).

I've had a similar issue recently, it seems as though Power BI wasn't printing the entire report page, but trying to cut off the empty spaces where there were no visuals. 

What's seemed to work for me is to add 2 100% transparent rectange shapes to the report in Power BI.  Have one narrow rectangle that spans the full width horizontally, and one that spans the full height vertically.  Make sure the shapes are sent to the back and not overlapping any other visuals if possible.

This seems to force the browser to print the entire page correctly.  Sounds ridiculous but it worked for us, so give it a try 🙂

@Jodes ,

I would suggest you to call JS API to print the full repor, please refer to doc and similar questions below:

@v-yuta-msft I should add that I'm using Squarespace and printing has been working fine up until recently. Maybe there was a change on PowerBI's end?

@Jodes ,

Have you changed the screen pixel before this issue happens?
