The lay-out of printed dashboards and report pages is lost when you print the page. Proper printing functionality is still missing (may 2018). In my humble opinion this should be a priority.

Paginated reports are designed for use cases intended for print. Consider using a paginated report when you need to print.

Power BI is a very useful tool for my current work. Not being able to print the data does limit my ability to review the information in a way that I feel is beneficial to me.

Agreed common complaint is that users just want to be able to print what they see on the dashboard which is not possible when scrollbars are involved

It´s nescessary to print the hole dashboard on more sites (maybe dashed lines
for the areas of the single pages are superimposed, to know how big my grafics
can be).
Or to have the option to export the grafics into Power-Point and than to print.

"Printing a whole table or matrix is necessary."

Power BI Embedded needs better printing / exporting options like in the service which supports RLS. Also would be useful to have the option to print full visualisations like tables even if they need to be scrolled on the page (print long table)

This is definitely required business case. Executives do no want to log into power bi or can't always log into power bi - hence email export of dashboard content would work better.
