Printer Friendly Version of Pages

I'm looking for a way to create printer-friendly pages for my cmsms pages (similar to the way the news articles work).
There may already be a posting on this, but I haven't found it. If there is already a script or module, sorry for the re-post.

I've looked at scripts like this one: http://stefangabos.blogspot.com/search/ ... t%20Script

Has anyone already implemented this feature for page other than new module pages?

Thanks in Advance.

Help is near: Just have a look at the tags-menu of CMSMS. There is a tag called {print} with several options and it is used for just printing the content-part (i.e. website without navigaion, etc.) of your website. However, I would strongly recommend using a separate print-stylesheet with media="print" and just hide navigation and other stuff. There are a lot of tutorials out there how to achieve this. Google is your friend.

Regards,
Nils

Yes, the media=print stylesheet is The Right Way(TM). Begin easy with display:none to navigation elements.
