web2py make 20 entries on a page

Question

I have a lot of entries in the table that I want to display, and as I already have other things on the same page, I want to make this table show only 10-20 entries per page. How can I add that?

Here is the code I wrote in view:

{{if prints:}}
<h3>{{=T('Print history:')}}</h3>
{{i=0}}
<table>
    <thead>
            <th>#</th>
            <th>{{=T('Component name')}}</th>
            <th>{{=T('Component code')}}</th>
            <th>{{=T('Number of components')}}</th>
            <th>{{=T('Printing date')}}</th>
    </thead>
    <tbody>
        {{for design in prints:}}
            <tr><td>{{=i+1}}</td><td>
         {{=design.fk_printhistory_componentcatalog.component_name}}</td><td>
         {{=design.fk_printhistory_componentcatalog.component_code}}</td><td>
         {{=design.no_of_components}}</td><td>{{=design.time_stamp}}</td></tr>
        {{i=i+1}}
        {{pass}}
    </tbody>
</table>
{{pass}}

*Assuming, you are getting prints from db and wants pagination in your table.

You can use limitby in select. This web2py slice will help you.
