The preview looks decent but the php causes my browser to tell me that
'the page was replaced while you were trying to print it'...
Google uses a similar process to decent effect - the same policy of just
printing the main frame content with the logo and title pasted in at the
top.
I suspect the best way to create serious (from a design-for-print
standpoint) web-to-print systems is to install a php-based pdf
generator, because at the end of the day no matter how sophisticated web
technologies get, printing from within the browser is always going to
leave a world's worth of factors out of your control. I believe Adobe
have a very nice system based on this principle.
Had a fun experience recently when developing my own print stylesheet
whereby my overflow:hidden properties caused the print to be limited to
one page no matter what.

Barney
