I do not think it is possible to print off a family tree from GR.

Most members use a very good printing service, the owners of which used to belong to GR ........ I don't remember their contact information, but I'm sure someone will be along soon who can help you.

Researching:
My brother, photo taken in September 1991 just a couple of weeks before he died. ............................................................ To help us and to get better results, please post as much detail as you can, especially name, date(s) and place. Also say what you already know.

Its this one, Sylvia

Here's what Genes has to say about printing a full tree.
https://www.genesreunited.co.uk/help/faqs?key=430

They suggest My History (Printers) http://bit.ly/12XXnDJ

Whatever option you take, you do have to download a copy of you tree in the form of a gedcom. You could easily email a gedcom copy to him. It might be cheaper for you and your brother to find and download a free family history programme. Once installed on your home device, you'll be able read the gedcom. It won't make a lot of sense otherwise.

Gillian, I have the same problem (see my post of the 24th April), only my relative who wants a copy of my mothers side doesn't have a computer :-
I last gave him a paper copy many moons ago, and I have since moved 400 miles away so it could cost me a pretty penny to post - though he has said he'll reimburse me the cost!
Thankfully there's some very knowledgeable people on here to help, hope you manage to sort out your tree.
