Printing Reports
The Active System Manager software reporting feature is designed to print out all information in a given
category, not just the information you see displayed on the screen. For best results, use the Landscape
mode in your browser’s print settings.
This section describes two ways to print reports:
• Printing Reports from an HTML Browser
• Printing Reports from a Web Browser
Printing Reports from an HTML Browser
To print a report from your HTML browser, click File > Print. This menu prints all information in a given
category—not just the information displaying on the screen.
Printing Reports from a Web Browser
To print reports from your web browser, perform the following steps:
1. Click File > Page Setup.
2. Set the orientation to Landscape mode.
3. Verify that the Print background colors and images option is enabled.
4. Exit the Page Setup dialog box.
5. Click File > Print. Alternatively, you can use the link at the upper right of the report to export the report
as a PDF.
