When trying to print an order for pickup, the order area is good with an advertisement on the far right side. The advertisement is always there. When I print the page I want, the advertisement partially covers the printed page. I have been unable to fix this nuisance. Ed
 
If all else fails, try dropping your screen resolution. Their webserver "knows" your browser resolution and accomodates.

You can't use an email receipt for whatever it is you're getting.
 
Does the website offer a printable page? Sometimes there is a link to a printable page, providing more print-friendly output.

Sadly, that "knowledge" does not affect printing.

OP, you could always also print the page from your web browser as a .pdf (which, hopefully, will render the page on the .pdf identically to the layout on screen) and then print the .pdf. If you're using Windows I am not sure if there is a built-in .pdf printing function but a free one ought not be hard to find. This can be done natively on a Mac or most Linux distros.
 
Many browsers do this now. I don't think Windows does this natively, but there are a number of PDF printers that can be installed such as CutePDF

I needed to take the email sent to me, in order to pick up the item I ordered and that is when I ran into trouble with the advertisement blocking out the order number. Stinkers. I looked carefully for a printer friendly or even a print version but, none could be found. Ed
 
Quick fix that might work, instead of printing it from their page, most sites will email you the information as well. Log into your email and select the print option, it'll adjust everything so that the email message isn't being covered.
