For some while I used IE and after following topics on here, changed to Safari and also downloaded Firefox & Opera.
My question is: with Safari the web page print density is much clearer than the others for the same print size, can you alter the density (blackness) of the print on the other browsers?
The other browser print appears on my monitor as if it was "faded" but Safari is fine, anyone else noticed this ir is it just my setup :scratch:

It's the way they render the text differently. It's the difference between the browsers and I don't think you can change how it ends up going to the printer.

I already use the sizing of text by using the mouse wheel :thumbright:
It's a question of the appearance of the text on the screen, size for size, Safari browser text is so much clearer, because it appears more dense than the others.
It's not a problem as such, just something which seems a bit weird :scratch: and I wondered if anyone else has found the same thing?
Thanks for the replies so far :thumbright:
