Printing Notes:

While I recommend printing in color and laminating materials for future use, it is not necessary. These materials print just fine in grayscale. I would suggest printing "as image" to avoid any potential issues. Additionally, download the resource to your computer, open it, and then print. Printing from your browser often creates problems.
