I was planning using Print My Page addon to format and print the page containing the tabs. This uses a print style sheet to format the page.
I have the rest of the page printing ok. I am not sure of what css I will need to use to get the tabs to print.

Hi,
I have now got all the tabs printing. I think I was looking at the screen for too long last night. A fresh start and all is good.
Thanks

Hi Colin
Good to know you have a solution. This could be of interest to other users of both addons, so if you have a spare 5 minutes it would be great if you could post a few more details.

This is the CSS I used with Print My Page to hide the tabs and print the content
I used firebug to get the div id's

#jl_magic_tabs_lock_component_home_gix1{display:block !important;} #jl_magic_tabs_built_lock_gix2{display:block !important;} #jl_magic_tabs_finishing_pack_gix3{display:block !important;} #jl_magic_tabs_fully_built_gix4{display:block !important;} .jl_magic_tabs_dlx_inclusions{display:none;} .jl_magic_tabs_self_contained_starter{display:none;} .jl_magic_tabs_controls{display:none;} .jl_magic_tabs {display:none;}

You may be able to do it by creating a print specific style sheet that makes all tabs visible. Or by adding a bit of javascript to make all tabs visible.
Perhaps if you looked further into 'print this page' script snippets, you could use such a snippet from a button and tweak the script to make all tabs visible as part of the print action.
In the long term, this is a sufficiently good idea that I will add it to my file of possible enhancements for when I next do a major overhaul of magic tabs.
