Can I force a page break in HTML printing?

Add a CSS class called “pagebreak” (or “pb”), like so:

@media print {
    .pagebreak { page-break-before: always; } /* page-break-after works, as well */
}

Then add an empty DIV tag (or any block element that generates a box) where you want the page break.

<div class="pagebreak"> </div>

It won’t show up on the page, but will break up the page when printing.

P.S. Perhaps this only applies when using -after (and also what else you might be doing with other <div>s on the page), but I found that I had to augment the CSS class as follows:

@media print {
    .pagebreak {
        clear: both;
        page-break-after: always;
    }
}
