WD-40 in not a lubricant! I don't care if it does come in a "handy" felt tip applicator....
WD = Water Displacement. It is a solvent. It will lubricate initially, but in time will become worse than it originally was. It will break down whatever lubricant that "might" have already been in there. Use silicone or something else that was designed to lubricate. Please! For the love of DOG! Stop with the WD-40 already!
If you want to fight this battle, you should start by telling the manufacturer to stop calling it a lubricant:
Myth: WD-40 Multi-Use Product is not really a lubricant.
Fact: While the “W-D” in WD-40 stands for Water Displacement, WD-40 Multi-Use Product is a unique, special blend of lubricants. The product’s formulation also contains anti-corrosion agents and ingredients for penetration, water displacement and soil removal.
There was a great bicycle mechanic video about this years ago. Essentially wd40 is a LOT of solvent, a bit of mineral oil, & the water displacement ingredient. Good for quick unsticking, cleaning somewhat corroded joints, & pushing small amounts of water out of things. I like to hit whatever it is I'm working on with something like 3 in 1 or silicone knowing the solvents remaining from the wd40 will carry the lasting lube deeper in the mechanism.
Hi Mark, depending on your setup you should be able to print from the browser. File > Print or Right Click > Print or Command > Print, and then remove or uncheck the option for Headers and Footers and preferably print in Landscape layout.

Whew! Another disaster narrowly averted.

OK, seems like I should know how to do this, but how do I print that one page calendar? Thanks!

Got it, thanks!
