Printing a Text file from ASP

dw
Hello all. We have an interesting situation: A developer wants to allow
users to print a text-only version of an ASP page -- but do so without
showing the page. In other words, the users are viewing the regular version
of the page, but then click the "Print Text-Only Version" (and see the print
dialog) but not see the page that will be printed. Is this even possible?
Thanks.

Using CSS: @media=print with liberal use of display:none;
