The 'Print' button in the browser toolbar only prints the single page that is currently displayed in the Portal.
Note that there is both a 'Server Print' and a regular 'Print' button. The regular 'Print' button will load a PDF in the background so that every page can be printed. Most browsers will launch the Adobe Reader plug-in to complete the printing operation. This client-side print feature is only available on platforms that fully support Adobe Reader.

In addition to the standard toolbar buttons above, a report may also have a pop-up menu button. This button will open a custom menu that was built by the report developer.
Note: A pop-up menu button can also be on an element.
