How do I get the system to print-out a date at the bottom of page?

Question

When I am at a website and ask for a print-out of the page -
the current date and time of print-out no longer appears at the lower right corner of page.

Answer 1

I have resolved the problem. I will not use your time attempting to explain the process of elimination. However, the end result---
I had taken delivery of a new printer mid-January - it is a HP OfficeJet 6000 (E609) - I wondered if that might be the problem - since I could not ascertain exactly when the print-out problem had presented itself.
O.K. I logged on to the system and brought up the "Google" page to ask for a print-out. I checked for a print - and when the print box appeared I checked on "properties". That showed - to the left: "General Everyday Printing" and over to the right: Page size "A4 210 x 297mm" also the option "letter 8.5" x 11" and Legal 8.5" x 14" - so, I changed it to ask for the "letter - 8.5" x 11" - then I checked to "print" - I believe it was the "OK" - and the "Google: page was printed intact - showing the data generally associated with the top of the page and the date/time at the lower right.
I placed a telephone call the HP this morning to ask them about the "A4" option and was advised that it is a "standard size paper" - but could not explain under set of circumstances it would be applicable.
Hopefully, this data will be helpful to someone - thank you very much for your assistance in this matter.
