OK I made a program in js that builds business cards and allows you to print them on the perforated cards you get in the stores.I'm having 2 problems presently with printing the output.
1.When I use white or lightly colored text over an image the text becomes ghostly( meaning you can only see a hint of it.)
2.I showed how to take out the headers and the footers and manually align for printing each card.
When printing on plain paper I get 10 complete cards.
PROBLEM: When someone prints on the cards(myself included)I get 8 perfect cards then on the last 2 cards the bottom gets cut off and carried over to the next page.

What I want to know is what the software programmers use to over ride this and how can it be done with javascript or can it?

software programmers is a far cry from the webmasters. you have more control on the higher languages as you do with js or serverside languages. but without seeing the code it is hard to judge what you did wrong or what the problem is.

It just uses the browsers print options.

File>Page Setup
File>Print
I didn't use a javscript:window.print() or anything.
