David,
What I meant is that I have a list of items in tile or tabular format and I
want to print just a certain element of that list and not the entire screen.
The direction I'm thinking of taking right now is providing a link (<a href>) within
an element (<div>) which would set the element 'print' media style to visible and
turn all the other elements off.
It seems to be complicated , can you suggest any other solution?
What I thought maybe possible to do is to have JS select just that one element
and then invoke a standard JS to give the user the print prompt. Can you think
of how to make JS display one one element from the list?

I'm still not sure what you need. So, say, I browse to this exhibit
http://simile.mit.edu/exhibit/examples/nobelists/nobelists.html
and do some filtering, such as selecting Chemistry in the Discipline
facet. Then I invoke the Print command. That seems to print the view
just fine.
Or you mean that in an exhibit you can specify some lens templates for
screen viewing and some for printing? E.g.,
<div ex:role="lens" ex:media="screen">...</div>
<div ex:role="lens" ex:media="print">...</div>
That would be hard to implement... Using CSS 'print' media support is
probably the best you can do.
