Enable the print module: Administer > Site building > Modules (admin/build/modules) 3. Configure access rules: Administer > User management > Access control (admin/user/access) 4. Configure: Administer > Site configuration > Printer-friendly (admin/settings/print) ******************************************************************** UPDATE: When updating from a previous version, just remove the print directory and follow the instructions above. Make sure that you backup any costumization to the print.tpl.php and print.css files. ******************************************************************** ROBOTS: Even though it is possible to set per-page robots settings, the following can be placed in your robots.txt file after the User-agent line to prevent search engines from even asking for the page: Disallow: /print/ Also, for updates from older versions (<=4.7.x-1.0 and <=5.x-1.2) which used node/nnn/print instead of print/nnn, the following lines can prevent requests from Google for the obsolete print URLs: Disallow: /*/print$ Note that pattern matching in robots.txt is a Google extension (see http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?answer=40367 for more information). ******************************************************************** CUSTOMIZATION: - To modify the template of printer friendly pages, simply edit the print.tpl.php or the print.css files found in this directory. - It is possible to set per-content-type and/or theme-specific templates which are searched for in the following order: i. print.__node-type__.tpl.php in the theme directory ii. print.__node-type__.tpl.php in the module directory iii. print.tpl.php in the theme directory iv. print.tpl.php in the module directory (supplied by the module)
