It doesn't seem to print properly when I have it in screen mode. Also I just
think people get it more when they press a button and the screen goes into a
printer friendly page. It's like they can be sure of what they are getting
before they press print. Maybe it's just me but the amount of times I have
seen annoyed users who go to print and don't get what they want.
