Oh. I just used it to print a post on my blog for work. You could put the link into a text widget so your readers could use it to print your posts. via pasting the url themselves. I don't think there is a direct/automatic link you can use for print friendly. But then there is this old thread so it may be possible to embed a button:

1Tess, how did you tie it into your wordpress article tho? Or did you just provide the link, and let folks go there and paste your url in themselves?

Look into "Print Friendly" because it worked for me the last time I used it during this past summer.

Does wordpress have a function or is there some way that we can give readers a print option? You know, the sort where when you click a button or link, only the site header and article are shown, without sidebars, etc?
