One tool that I have found useful for printing or saving components of web pages without elements that I don't want is an Add-on:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/print-edit-we/
You don't have to know much about web pages or look into the code to pare down what is on the screen. When you activate it, as your cursor moves over the web page, red boxes show you what element you will be selecting. When I selected the table, then "Delete except", and then preview/print, I was able to get essentially the same full-page table that Ben got without needing to know how to read/understand HTML.
Also, Charles, not a criticism, but trying to use (i.e. selecting) A3 or A4 paper when your printers almost certainly have letter (8.5x11 in), legal (8.5x14 in) or tabloid (11x17 in) sized paper is a bit like using a flathead screwdriver on a Philips head screw. You might get it to work, but it's definitely less efficient.
