To Print Expo Update in Landscape Mode, go to "Print." Then select "Properties."  While each printer is different, there is usually a tab that says "Layout" and there you can select "Landscape" as opposed to Portrait (Or vertical) mode. Printing in landscape should allow you to print the entire page (It may be about 12 pages!)
