Sue,

That is one of the problems (not the least by any means) of using Frames.  

Most web designers don't use them any more.

Using NOF's master borders can give you similar effects without any of the
downsides of using Frames.

Welcome to frame hell.   You can use MasterBorders without frames.  Deselect
the frames on the MasterBorder properties box.

When you rebuild your site without frames, you will need to delete the old
site files from your remote server and your local publish folder.  This is
to clear out the garbage created by frames.

Here is a tutorial on "printer friendly pages:"

Printing only the body of a web page with frames

I have built a website (NOF 8) with a top, a left and a right frame.  Using 
print preview in IE the frames are all there but about a third of the body 
on the right is not shown. How can I adjust this to show ALL the webpage in 
Print preview or how can I determine that the user only gets to see the body 
to print when they select print preview from IE?   Any help gratefully 
received - thanks.
