How intriguing.
SARPC on RISC OS 6.10 Netsurf r5632 (26th October) to HPLJ 5P
Clicked the link and the map page was displayed on screen, clicked
the Ns
Printer tool icon.
<snip>
The only way I could get it to *NOT* print the map, was if I clicked
the
mouse pointer in the area that comtained the text, top left, which I guess
is understandable the way the page is constructed.

I was able to export the page as a drawfile. The map was intact but I lost
some of the other text. I was able to ungroup the map n number of times then
select the map (which was only one object) & export it for printing.
