This is an extension of https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas/suggestions/6806294-allow-proper-printing due to the fact that if an idea is marked completed, I haven't yet seen Microsoft checking to evaluate any feedback on that release. I went to use the print button and all the visualizations were messed up on the printouts and there's no way to get a print preview to see if visualizations,etc are situated as they need to be. If there is a way to do this, it's not obvious to the user.

RE: Proper dashboard printing
Need to print whole matrix tables. Can we have an option to print just one visual with some print options? I'd be super happy with an export option that gives a pivot table in Excel as an alternative.

For those of you who use Power BI Embedded, I've also raised an Idea for printing dashboard pages there.

RE: Proper dashboard printing
The need to print all rows in a matrix is critical. At the moment, the print functionality is only a print screen function.
RE: Proper dashboard printing
Printing all rows of a Gantt chart visualisation is key for me. In IE 11 the 'Print AS Picture' option is the closest thing I can muster to something that prints all rows... but its not great. The background is black in the resulting image (even though it is white in the report) and the font changes also.
RE: Proper dashboard printing
For proper business use we need a working and customizeable print-function. Without that it's useless for meetings. Please take care of this asap.
RE: Proper dashboard printing
We really do need the functionality where it allows us to print the entire contents of the matrix table.
RE: Proper dashboard printing
I abandoned power bi and am using excel with powerquery now because printing is not available .
RE: Proper dashboard printing
A year ago someone said they were looking into why this idea was marked completed... lol no update since then. This is crazy. If we can't print accurately, we're going to be stuck with Tableau.
RE: Proper dashboard printing
Having a printing option with preview and formatting support is needed for a table Can you please improvise the current print option in PowerBI????
RE: Proper dashboard printing
As mentioned on previous comments, it's also a crucial requirement for us the option to print all rows/cols for a Matrix or Table visualisation (i.e. including "unscrolled" rows/cols)
