Why did my sheet print without lines?
Short answer. It only had gridlines, which stay on screen.
Where is the Borders button?
On the Home tab.

Neat on screen, but printed without lines. Why? Here is why. Gridlines print only if you switch them on. Borders you add do print. Fill colour prints too. Remember. Gridlines stay on screen. Borders print. Use the Borders button.
