Basically, you can remove the ads manually before printing the aimed webpage. Although this task is time-consuming and annoying when there are a lot of ads on the webpage, it is undoubtedly an effective way. You can just click the “x” icon of each ad to remove it.

When you switch to the reading mode on your browser, the webpage will be shown in another format that only contains texts and important images. However, not every browser allows you to print the webpage in reading mode like Mozilla Firefox and Safari. Although Chrome supports changing to the reading mode, the webpage cannot be printed in this mode so you cannot print webpage without ads and pictures in this way on Chrome.
If you are using a browser without a built-in reading mode button or you cannot find it, you can add an extension equipped with the ability to switch to the mode. Then, print this webpage without ads.
With the development of technology and the blooming of the print-without-ads requirements, some extensions have been produced to print webpage without ads. You can choose a reliable and popular one to try. The extension can help you automatically remove the ads before printing a webpage.
Or, you can try an ads-blocking service. With it, ads will not be shown on the webpage which does a big favor when reading and printing a webpage. Since some browsers provide built-in ads-blocking services, you can check if your browser has or not before installing a third-party one.
There may be situations in which the Print feature cannot work. In this case, you can use an alternative – the MultCloud “Save Webpage as PDF” extension. It is a free Chrome extension and allows you to save a Chrome webpage as a PDG or PNG file to the computer or the cloud.
