I've corrected this in the css. Comments and vote tallies should now print properly. Let me know if you want anything else to look different on the printout.

There's now a good answer on meta.SE to Anton's post. It seems for now the solution is to write a new CSS stylesheet for printing. It shouldn't be too much work -- I'm not going to do it, but if someone stops by my office I'll try to do it with them :-)

First though -- Anton, can you "plug in" a new CSS stylesheet?

I'd never noticed that before (I guess I never tried printing the page). I posted a feature-request on meta.SE. I imagine that somebody there will know some way to get the browser to print the page in its entirety.

At present, if you print a mathoverflow page (to pdf say), it removes all the comments. Often the comments contain important insights and references. There should be an option to print the page with the comments intact, as it appears on screen.
