Windows 7: problems printing from internet

I don't know if this is a Windows 7 issue or IE 8 issue. I have an HP 1200 series all in one printer. It prints all microsoft office documents fine. However, since getting my new computer with Windows 7 and internet explorer 8, it will not print clearly when trying to print from the internet. Every other line prints unclear because the letters are split in half (top and bottom) and slightly offset. Sometimes each letter is double printed. Again, this happens every other line. I re-installed the printer but no help. Any clues?

Until you fix the problem (of which I have no idea of the cause), I suggest you copy the content from the internet into a Word or Wordpad document and print that.
