    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

    This says it's completed... I'm confused. It still sucks.

    This is not completed, PBI team. Why would you mark this as completed? Like many users have said, this is a critical failure, and is a show stopper for a lot of organizations!

    Please add various printing options like PDF,Excel, Fax, etc. as it is an important requirement for any company.
    The limitation of feature will be restricting us from using Power BI.

    RE: Allow proper printing of Dashboards

    this idea is print dashboard, which I guess they've completed. My dashboards are tiny images in the corner of the page so its definitely not "proper" printing. There an idea to enable printing of all pages on a report. I saw one with 23 votes which seems hardly urgent at all but this feature is so necessary.

    When I print my report shouldn't I know what filters are applied to the report so my audience will know what they are looking at? Otherwise a printed report is completely useless. I could have all of my products filtered down to Kitty Litter and the CFO would have no idea...this is HUUUGEEE as our President would say.

    This is so basic and so necessary. Without it the desktop product is not viable. Will printing be enabled in SSRS 2016 Power BI web rendering in mid-2017?

    Printing is completely broken, yet, this idea is marked as completed. Does anyone at MS actually care that we can't print?
