Ohh if this wasn't so sad, you would laugh. Some progress *has* been made here! Much to my surprise. The layout of our modern pages has changed recently (hadn't noticed) but the content is now in a scrolling box in the middle with "Like, Comment, Views" on the fixed area at the bottom.
So with bated breath I tried to print a small modern page and thought it had been fixed in that the first page looked fine... horary I thought *except* when I printed the document (or previewed) on screen, the 2nd page was blank.
And now to the really, really laughable bit - it works in Chrome... well at least you get two pages with all the content except the colour is a bit washed out. I'll print to PDF so I can upload here.

With bated breath I installed the latest April update which has lots of updates for Edge. Nope, still can't print modern web pages in Microsoft's own Office 365 product. Bordering on pathetic now guys :-( So we continue to roll out Chrome... talk about shooting yourself in the foot.
