After you have generated a worksheet, you can just refresh the page from your browser window to get another worksheet with different problems but using the same options.

All worksheets come with an answer key.  You can print the worksheet directly from your browser, or save it on disk using the "Save as" command of your browser.  If the problems on the worksheet don't fit the page or there is not enough working space, choose a smaller font, less cellpadding, or fewer columns of problems.
