And except that it doesn't work when JavaScript isn't available and is
a dead link instead.
And except that it produces a new and unexpected UI control for
something that the typical browser already presents the user with
several ways of doing (File > Print, Ctrl+P, a print button in a
toolbar, etc).
It is pointless. It doesn't allow users to do anything they couldn't
do before, breaks in some cases, and wastes screen space and
bandwidth.

Best way - get rid of it. Otherwise set up a print media stylesheet.
