Printing + JSP

How could I create a print preview of a record which will be small in size?

I have a web application which has two print functions.  The function prints out two different records.  Right now, I have a simple print preview with a print button.  When a user goes to print the view, I notice that the size of the print was over 70 MB.  All I have on this page is a table with maybe ten get methods to retreive the data.  I am using jsp, beans, and servlets.  What is the best way to handle this?  Thanks all.

The print preview is just a jsp page with a get methods located in a table written in html and java.  I thought for some reason that this would be printer friendly.

No, it is not the standard print from browser.  I have created a jsp page which is the print preview and then I print the current page.

I am measuring the size of the print from looking at the printing informaiton on my computer.  In the printing que.

Thanks,
