Should i keep #wrapper{ width:100%} in print css?

Question

Should i keep #wrapper{ width:100%} in print css? because on screen my design is a fixed width design 960 px. but there are so many paper type and sizes in the world and anybody can take print on any size paper, bigger and smaller.

So if in print css i do not specify relative width then i think print of page will cut of from right size if user will take print on the paper size which can smaller or larger width than my site #wrapper width (960px). then it can create problem.

printer also leave some margin when printing.

So should keep everything is relative size in print css?

update:

And should i also change float left or right to float:none in print css?

Answer 1

Yes, you should. If you stick to a definite pixel size, you could even run into a situation where different visitors could see different amounts of the page cut off because of their printer DPI and/or browser. You might want to also consider adjusting your font sizes to be relative as well (using em or %).

Word of caution: make sure all your elements flow correctly when you switch over to a relative width, or you could have other parts of your content cut off or pushed into strange places.

Answer 2

The browsers tend to translate pixels to a similiar size before sending to printer, so it will look similar to what you see on screen. It will not send the pixel size to the printer.
