    Ctrl P does not do a good job of printing the dashboard. Provide a Print button which optimises printing perhaps defaulting to the filters & title on page 1 and the dashboard sheets in landscape on pages 2 to n+1

    Without this feature, PowerBI is basically useless for me. This should be a top priority in my opinion. Needs Print to PDF or Multiple Page Printing!

    Printing does not work. I do not understand why this is marked as complete. When I try to print a dashboard, the tiles are microscopic. The current printing option is completely useless. Very disappointed that such a basic feature is so flawed that it is non-operational.

    Printing a dashboard now is currently worthless...it gives nothing a user can use in a business atmosphere. It should look exactly how the dashboard looks on the screen which is not the case.

    Hi,

    Printing option is not that helpful for now. Can we get an update for this please? Like adding print preview and printing button in the power BI offline. It would really be helpful and relevant improvement for this tool.

    Thanks.

    Please add support on Embedded Power BI too. We can not use it for wider adoption without atleast Grid level printing/exporting, if not Dashboard.

    I couldn't get this to work right and since I don't think Microsoft checks up on comments on a Completed idea, I submitted this idea to follow up: https://ideas.powerbi.com/forums/265200-power-bi-ideas/suggestions/13271697-proper-dashboard-printing
