Sudden problems with printing dashboards
Hello,
Since a few weeks I have not been able to properly print dashboards from Power BI. I have tried different browsers and settings, but have been unsuccessful. For some reason the same dashboard that I could print just fine a few weeks back, ends up in the top right corner, and about 75% of the dashboard does not show. Tried using full screen mode and then printing - then suddenly the first 30% of the report looks fine - but the other is missing. Do you know what I can do? Did Microsoft change something?

Thank you v-easonf-msft - appreciate you checking this for me. I actually got it to work decently - when going into fullscreen and scrolling down to the end of the dashboard and then choosing print - then it actually worked.

Just letting you know I still can't get my dashboards to print anywhere decently. It's very frustrating and embarrassing to report to our clients that this is the best presentation that Microsoft can do for us.

Hi , InspectahJV
There are browser settings you can use to adjust the printout, but even then you still may not get the result you want. Consider exporting to PDF first and printing the PDF instead.
