>>>Is there any way of inhibiting the printing of part of a message?<<<

1)  You can delete the unwanted part before pressing the Print button.

2) If you don't want to delete, highlight the part you want to print, right
click, then select copy.  Send a message to your self, right clock, and
press paste.  Print that.
