plz help, is there any way to print the contents of a div?

@WebJoelApr 28.2007 — #Here's something I used to do when I needed to print 'just an image' like driving-directions/map on sites to be "printable". I converted it a bit to make (I think??) the contents of the DIV "#printable", be sent to the printer...

(My printer is out of black ink and therefore, cannot test this 'on text'. This works for images...).
