Hide the "collapsed region" lines when printing a Mathcad report?

Is there an option that would allow to hide the unsightly "Collapsed Region" lines when printing a report from Mathcad?

Haven't found one and now have to fit the collapsed regions on their own pages which can then be removed from the printout. Was hoping for something less cumbersome.

Maybe the lines show as deletable images if exporting to Word? But would rather avoid the Word editing step if at all possible, and go directly to PDF.

Thank you.

In Russia there are teachers who see themselves as patriots (nationalists). Foreign (English) words in the calculations operate on these teachers as a red rag to a bull.
Smart students do not argue with these teachers, and do so :

This is very precisely what I have to do to turn my Home Work report in!

Not because of the foreign words, but because Mathcad is foreign to the tovarich Professor.

Lots of collapsed area!

This works for MathCAD 15, but how do you do this in MathCAD Prime 2?

I found mention about this here in this blog: http://blogs.ptc.com/2012/01/13/collapsible-areas-a-mathcad-prime-2-0-feature-we-dont-want-to-conceal/

"You can also choose to print with or without the Areas. Collapsed Areas appear as gray lines."

but so far have not found how to activate this option when printing.

Thanks VladimirN - I had read that blog earlier. I suppose this is one of those features in MathCAD 15 that the developers didn't think us average users really wanted.
