Printing knowledge articles

Does anyone else have issues printing knowledge articles directly from Employee Center? We have a requirement to be able to print articles from the front-end of Employee Center. I have tried in both my PDI and our company's site and below is what I get. Everything is OOB configuration for Xanadu. The article is just text.

 

I have seen some solutions recommended on the community but they all require backend access to ServiceNow. We need something that front-end users can use. I would think this would be OOB functionality that doesn't require much setup, but maybe I am missing something.

 

(It seems to be an issue when printing any page in Employee Center - not just knowledge articles)

 

Any recommendations are welcome. Thank you!

To close this loop, I opened a support case with ServiceNow. They sent the following solution which fixed the issue in our instance....


Under the EC Theme for the ESC portal, go to the CSS Variables section and add the below code:

@media print {
.sp-page-root { container-type: normal; }
}

 

Hopefully this works for others, too.
