Hello Chris,

Thank you for posting your concern here in Microsoft Community and welcome to the Windows 10 Family. I would be happy to assist you.

From the description provided, I understand that you are unable to print only the highlighted section in Microsoft Edge.

Please be informed that print by selection feature is not available in Microsoft edge.

Hope the above information was helpful. If you need further assistance, please do let us know and we would be glad to help you.

Thank You.

    On Microsoft edge on the top right corner there is the 3 dots ...  If you click on it you have the option to open the web page with  Internet  explorer.  you then select and copy and paste easily to excel or other apps..

    enjoy

    Not very helpful.  Not very efficient. This waste a lot of time for most people wanting the old feature back.  Highlight, right-click, and print.

    Why? It seems Stupid.  Its like a group of Microsoft's finest said what can we do to make this almost mandatory upgrading more aggravating?  Then took that list and ran with it.  Since the goal was obviously to make the product less useful job well done.  And the responses from MS are basically them politely saying here's my **** have a go at it.  I mean really take out a basic function then when several people complain you just say Yep! it doesn't do that.  Well **** me I guess telling me to stop looking is mildly helpful but just callous.

    "So what do we do?"

    This thread is 5 pages long.  In those 5 pages are many suggestions for a work around.  All of the suggestions are slower and less efficient and IE was but now that Microsoft seems to have slowed IE it is probably the least efficient.

    You could download Google Chrome and Mozella Firefox and learn how to use them.  I really like Firefox but I havent' taken the time to learn all the features of either Chrome or Firedox or to customize them to my needs.  I don't find "Print Selection" on either of them to be as fast and efficient as the now pretty much defunct IE.

    I usually copy and paste the selection you want to print to Word and then print it from there. 

    Copying to One Note might be faster but I took a look at One Note and decided I have better things to do with my time than sit in front of a PC all day learning a new program.
