I have been a member of GR for many years and still do not know how to print off my family tree which is on this site.
Can anyone please point me in the right direction? ??

There's an icon on the tree page, near the top on the right. It 'should' print the part of the tree which you can see on the screen.

However...it's impossible to print off a full tree assuming you have hundreds of names. The system just can't cope. TBH, when I did so in the early research days (80 people) it took about 20 pages of A4 and needed to be spread out on the lounge floor to be taped together.

You'd be better off paying someone like http://www.genealogyprinters.com or http://www.my-history.co.uk who will print out the section you want in the format best suited to your requirements.
