🍴 Need Help Printing or Saving Recipes?

At Dusty Recipes, I want everyone to be able to easily print, save, or share the recipes they love.
That’s why I’ve added a tool called Print Friendly — it helps keep recipes neat, clean, and simple to use.

If you’re new to it (or if technology sometimes feels like a sticky pie crust 😅), don’t worry!
This quick guide will walk you through exactly how to use PrintFriendly, with step-by-step instructions and helpful pictures along the way.

🖨️ Step 1: Find the Print Friendly Button

Look for the Print Friendly button at the bottom of every recipe.
It says Print this post followed by a button with a printer icon, PDF icon, and an email icon.

✂️ Step 3: Customize Your Page (Optional)

Want an even cleaner copy? You can remove anything you don't need.

  • Hover your mouse over parts you don't want (like sidebars, ads, or footers).

  • A little trash can icon will appear — click it to delete that part!

(Don't worry — you can always hit “Undo” if you remove something by accident!)


📂 Step 4: Print, Save, or Email!

At the very top of the PrintFriendly window, you’ll see three big buttons:

  • Print — Sends the recipe straight to your printer.

  • PDF — Saves a copy to your computer or phone.

  • Email — Emails the recipe to yourself or a friend.

❤️ Extra Tips

  • Want a smaller font?
    You can shrink or enlarge the text size at the top of the PrintFriendly screen.

  • Want to remove pictures?
    There's an option at the top to turn images off if you want a plain text version. Set the image size to 0.

  • Using a phone or tablet?
    It works on mobile too! The steps are the same, but the screen might look a little different.

  • Is PrintFriendly free?
    Yes! There’s no cost to you — it’s just here to make things easier.
