Printer-friendly links shouldn't be necessary

I think you can do stylesheet magic to make printed pages look nice without separate pages. For instance, wordpress does this. I tried it on the 2005 guadec site, without success, but I'm a CSS muppet.
Yes. We will request/suggest this for the theme contest.
Added the following to the recommendations of the web theme contest: > Print friendly capacity managed from the CSS is appreciated. http://beta.guadec.org/node/26 Also opened a thread in the Drupal forum to get more feedback about the CSS print thing: http://drupal.org/node/44269
The current theme/layout hasn't got printer-friendly links anymore, but I don't know if the pages are printer-frienly. I can't test with a printer right now...
You can just try a print preview. It seems to have some kind of printer-friendly stylesheet: It doesn't show the header/banner image. But it needs to hide the menu when printing.
I've added CSS code to hide the menu when printing.
