What does this page actually look like on paper?

Print styles are the part of a site nobody looks at until a customer prints an invoice and gets four pages of navigation. This applies the page’s own print stylesheet, shows the result, and lists what decided it - including whether links expand to their destinations, which is a finding rather than a footnote: a printed page of links that go nowhere is a document with its content removed.

section#about

What this actually is

On anything a person will print - an invoice, a ticket, a recipe, a report - and on any page with a print stylesheet nobody has opened in two years.

section#asked

Asked about this tool

Why is "links do not expand" a finding rather than advice?

Because a printed page whose links are invisible is a document with its references removed, and the fix is one rule. Treating it as a style preference is how it stays broken.

Does the preview match my printer?

It matches what the browser will send. Margins, paper size and scaling are the print dialog’s, and the preview says so rather than pretending to know your paper.

Is the page left in a print state afterwards?

No. The sheet is put on the document and removed in a `finally`, so a failure part way through still takes it off.

Does it work on a page with no print styles?

Yes, and that is a useful reading: what you see is the screen layout as the browser will print it, which is usually the reason somebody came here.
