I use this

<?php if( $disp=='single' )  
  { ?> 
  <a href="javascript:window.print()"><img src="rsc/icon_16_print.gif" border="0" /></a> 
<?php } ?>

and with that I use a css file for "print" media...
Very easy and no plugin needed.

maybe I am just dumb, but I couldn't get that to work (I found it in the help docs here before I started asking about printer friendly stuff of course).

What file and where do i place it? Because it didn't work putting it in main where the other links are (permalink, comment links, etc.)

Also, I know CSS print stuff doesn't quite work yet, like certain browsers screw it up and what not, which is why I was looking for a better way.

And now that I mention it, if you could tell me where to place this file and what not I bet i could do the rest to get it to load up the article with a different skin in a popup window (as opposed to the print link that you have).

Thanks!, just any help on where to put that would be great.

Checkout my blog at:

Go down the home page and you will see "print this article"

if you check the other blogs such as Poetry you see how I did it if the post is not in a single view.

If you like it I can send you the files and the code. It works for 0.9.2 and 1.9.1 beta

The link to kskhater's blog isn't working for me so I am unable to check it out, but I too would like to know how to add a "printer-friendly" link. I actually would like to add a button to my own blog sidebar to print out all the currently displayed posts, expanded to show multi-pages and "mores," with comments. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Sorry for giving you the wrong link. The link is:

I'm afraid my version only prints a single article and its comments. You have to create a function that loops though all post and print the all with their comment. That is a big job.
