That's what I always do with the streetmap.co.uk site (sounds like
Google is a US equivalent of this, although I haven't looked at it). I
use Paint Shop Pro to just grab the bit of the map that I'm interested
in, then print it out how I want (I never use print from a browser
anyway as it always gives so much extra junk)

Plus streetmap shows ancient sites, so I tend to print out maps and go
exploring if I'm going somewhere new :-)
