I've been meaning to create some print CSS recently but haven't been able to find a decent tutorial on what should be included/left out, and why. Also, I agree one hundred percent on the inclusion of the logo. I believe that if the logo is used correctly to begin with then it will be a 'contextual element' rather than just a portion of the design. This is a great stash of information on print stylesheets.

I have put off adding a print.css in the past mostly because I never saw it as a high priority. However, with your article I can honestly say that you have given me renewed motivation to do a basic task. On the logo debate I only have a small opinion to add. All logos are different. Some logos would look great on paper and others would not. I think that you really need to take a look at your logo before including it and see if it is right for a printed page. If it isn't you should make a smaller, maybe less obtrusive one. All in all, I do agree that a logo should be included on a printed page. A user that printed the page can easily distinguish between your page and anything else they have printed. Very nice article.

Very comprehensive and it has me greatly doubting my site's design to hold up in print. Nice work as always! :) Very nice article on a subject that at least I am not very familiar with.
