    Hi Kathy, I too am new to this site. I Love it!! As far as Printing without the Advertisements, I always Highlight the words (Recipe in this case), then RIGHT Mouse Click, select COPY with the LEFT Click then PASTE it to a WORD Document or if you don’t have one I would Paste it to a DRAFT e-mail & Print it out later.
    You will PASTE the same way as you COPY. When you go to a Blank Word Doc. or E-mail you can Click on the Page & then RIGHT Mouse Click & Select PASTE with a LEFT Click. Once you have done this a couple of times it will be easy to remember.
    Hope this helps you. Take care.
