[request] FAQ Printable view

I think a link in each FAQ entry that will open up a printable view of the FAQ entry would be handy for anyone who needs to print up the information for future offline reference. The closest thing that comes is to replace the www in the URL with text to remove most of the unnecessary clutter. This method still leaves some unnecessary information and isn't exactly intuitive, especially for those who are unfamiliar with the text version of this website.

Re: FAQ Printable view

I'd never use it, but it's a good idea.. and we have too many trees anyway.

I recently had to uninstall and reinstall a few things on my computer and I know that if it wasn't for printing out the directions, I wouldn't be able to connect to the internet still. I think it's a great idea to be able to print out a particular FAQ entry that you need.

I see what you mean. Some FAQ's have a printable view but you don't want to have to print the entire FAQ.

We'll get rid of those pesky trees one way or another.

I see you can view a whole entire FAQ in a printable format, but I was thinking more of having a specific FAQ entry with printable view. For example, »Embarq/CenturyLink DSL »What are the DNS addresses for Embarq DSL? does not have a printable view option.
Attached is an image of how it may look.

MVM,

Plus, the printable FAQ still has the giant DSLR header and footer. The printable version should only have a thin bar on top at most, with the BBR logo if necessary. And it is pretty useless to only have the entire FAQ printable...
