Eric,
What you want to do seems reasonable. It might be better to change the print
button to open a new window with the print formatted stuff and print that.
Call it a print preview ;-)
Using the changeStylesheet.js change it so that instead of opening document
do

newWin = window.open("about:blank", "the attributes for no buttons nav menu
etc")
newDoc = newWin.document
newDoc.write etc
newWin.print()

Note there is also a media attribute on the <?stylesheet pi
