Configure the Print module

April 30, 2010 by Steve

The Print module makes printer-friendly versions of your pages, as well as making nice versions for email, and allowing access to a few different third-party PDF generation packages. I'm just using it for the printer-friendly link you see on each node.

The settings are found under Site Configuration > Printer, e-mail and PDF versions. I put the printer-friendly link in the "links area", but not the content area, and chose the text only link. I also checked the box to tell it to use my URL Aliases instead of the raw node id numbers for the print links. All the other settings I left as their defaults.

You will also need to give Anonymous users permission to use the contact form. (Time saver: here's the step where I set all the permissions at once.) If you want to set them now, go to User Management > Permissions, find the Print module permissions, and select "access print" for Anonymous users. Save your changes.
