Jim,

Not sure if this is what you are looking for, but I ensure the styling of my
printed lenses using a print.css style sheet (
http://www.alistapart.com/articles/goingtoprint/).


<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" media="print"
href="control/print.css" />

When the page prints, it applies the style from this CSS file. My print.css
file looks a bit like this:

body {
    background: white;
    font-size: 100%;
    }

td.sidebar {
    display: none;
    }

Basically it removes the side bar where my facets sit, so the lens prints
with the whole page, and ensures the text is the correct size.

Regards,
Jonno
