How to print and print preview my table only with a selected row and value instead of all the row and values?

Question

When print preview button is clicked, it displays all the data that is going to be print. I only want to select the row that I want, and let it print. And I want each field to have each own line, because also since I have too many fields, my mcCentre and nFirstName cannot display on the print preview.

(etc on the print preview)

appointmentID : 2

pDate : 5/3/2014

aTime : 11.30am

aStatus : waiting

...(continue until the last field)

My AppointmentForm

AppointmentPrintPreview once print preview button is clicked
