Printing

Print a recipe, your menu, or your grocery list. Each page carries its own Print button. Tapping it opens a print-ready version of that page — laid out for paper, with nav, action rows, and other on-screen chrome stripped away — and sends it to your printer. When you close the print dialog, that print window closes with it.

Every printout is numbered: each sheet shows its page number along the bottom (in Chrome and Safari; Firefox leaves them off).

  1. Open the recipe.
  2. Under the title, next to Share, tap Print.
  3. Pick your printer (or Save as PDF) in the system dialog.

What prints: the title, description, category, yield, ingredients, and instructions. Photos and the nutrition panel are left off. Each ingredient and each instruction paragraph gets a small checkbox square so you can tick them off as you cook.

If you’ve scaled the recipe on-screen, the printout carries that scale — the quantities on paper match what you’re looking at.

Cross-referenced recipes embedded in a step print inline with their host, framed so they read as a reference rather than steps to check off — useful for batch days when one recipe pulls in another. The “go to recipe” link on each embed is dropped, since paper can’t follow it.

The Print button sits next to Share on every recipe page, so anyone who can open the recipe can print it — household member or not.

  1. Open the Menu.
  2. In the page header, tap Print.
  3. Pick your printer in the system dialog.

What prints: the recipes and QuickBites you’ve checked, in two columns, grouped by category. Anything you’ve marked as made shows with a line through it. Unchecked items, empty categories, and the editing chrome drop away. What’s on paper is exactly what’s on this week’s plate.

The Print button is only shown to kitchen members.

  1. Open Groceries.
  2. If you shop by store, pick the store lens you want first — the printout carries whichever lens is active.
  3. In the page header, tap Print.
  4. Pick your printer in the system dialog.

What prints: every aisle with at least one unbought item, laid out in four columns, with checkbox squares ready for a pencil. Items you’ve already checked off drop away, so the page in your pocket reads still to buy instead of everything you ever added. The custom-item field and the row menus are hidden.

The Print button is only shown to kitchen members.

The print page on its own

The Print button opens a print-ready page and prints it for you. That page also stands on its own. Open its address directly — or open the button in a new tab — and you’ll get a paper-like preview instead of an automatic print dialog. A strip across the top links back to the live page and carries its own Print button; your browser’s print command (Cmd+P or Ctrl+P) works there too. This is also what you’ll get if your browser has JavaScript turned off — the button becomes a plain link to that preview.
