As far as I know, the big features are only in Vector, but core styles have
also received a few tweaks.


Yep that's right. They are also feature flagged. There are also some in
MediaWiki:Print.css

Most of the styles in Vector could be applied to all skins if that's useful
provided they can be overridden  (via getDefaultModules ) but that's not a
priority right now whole we get these tested  and easily done later on.

Minerva doesn't need these styles for instance.


An optional core module might be good here - like the external links 
one, the ones with all the content object styles, etc.

Are these changes in core, or in the skins themselves (Vector and 
Minerva)? In other words, will printing from other deployed skins such 
as MonoBook also see improvement, or is it up to the maintainers of each 
other skin to independently apply similar changes?


Thanks.

Our current print styles have issues printing tables that are common on
many articles. They also do not contain any reference to the Wikipedia
brand. The Readers team at the Wikimedia Foundation plans to update these
print styles with some improvements.

* Book-like styling similar to our current book (PDF) rendering option
* New layout of article content to reduce paper usage. This can potentially
reduce the number of pages printed by 20 to 25%.
* Clear printing of tables and infoboxes
* Better headings
* Project-specific branding

We are planning on deploying these styles in August 2017. For a comparison
of the old print styles and the new, please visit the project page on
MediaWiki.org. Comments and feedback can be left on the talk page there.

I'm confused by this problem statement:
> No branding or indication the content
> came from Wikipedia or sister sites

Are you saying there's currently a lack of attribution?

The example  
includes a "Wikipedia" wordmark, how do you plan to scale that to all 
localised versions of the wordmark and all sister projects?


Once again I recommend to use the global logo for each project if anything.
