Again this creates a problem for the casual user and a dependence upon the client software to properly render a 'print preview.'

Perhaps it would be appropriate to include this in the user preferences (apply to all skins?) to include/exclude the 'printable view' link.

This would allow the site administrator to easily change the default preference profile as appropriate as well as allowing the user's to override that behavior in their personal preference profile.

Firefox, IE, and Opera all seem to have Print Preview capabilities, is that inadequate for your needs?

I'd personally prefer to not clutter up Monobook with things like a print icon or other text.
