You may also try exporting to PDF and printing that.

i tried the pdf approach, but if u look close enuf, u'll find that PDF doesnt maintain the formatting
also, it has problems in spacing. Big Problems!

If we make a rectangle region invisible, on converting to pdf, it was leaving the exact amount of space as blank , mhtml didnot have this prob
Again the image format displayed same prob

also if a table is used with many columns, pdf will break & wrap
