Maybe the problem is that I don't fully understand how this works. My assumption is that one needs another views block called "print" to make this work, where the header and footer are eliminated, not to mention the inclusion of a different display page where the output isn't yellow text on a black background. Is there already a views block called "print" that I missed, or navigation that makes such a thing unNecessary ?
