    There needs to be a way to print tables which have too many rows as to fit on one page. Additionally, the inclusion of filters and data slicers should be at the top of each printed table/matrix so the user knows what he is looking at.

    Paginated reports are designed for printing tables and matrices that are multiple pages long or wide. Consider using a paginated report for tables you want to print.

    This is SOOO overdue. Please stop with the flash stuff, and get the basics done first.

    How is it possible that this feature is still not available? I mean being able to print a full report should be a no brainer!

    This is a feature anyone would expect to be in place. Print the whole datatable and not only the part that is on the screen. Get done with it soon! Our users are very disappointed and we're not able to move over to Power BI completely now.

    This would be great to show reports during a meeting with more than three people and no beamer (or worse: wifi) present.

    I've spent 2 days learning how to use this tool and building a model only to find I can send the data to my staff. I can't believe it. Back to Crystal. :-(

    RE: Proper Printing of Tables

    Agreed! This would be a great feature for long tables to simply be able to print out to PDF or print directly from the service or embedded view.

    Another challenge on a page is if you have a mix of visuals, which isn't lost on me in terms of complexity. Will there be a point where printing the listing of table or matrix contents in their entirety may be available?
