I agree with Randy

I use this
function print_page()
{
if (window.print)
{ parent.index_main.focus()
top.frames['index_main'].print() }
else
alert("Select \"Print\" from the menu")
}

This function is called from frame named "sidebar" to print a frame named
"index_main"

In fact Randy's reply implies it could perhaps be as simple as
if (window.print)
{ index_main.focus()
index_main.print() }
