Coding a print button script to print printer friendly version

1
Hey,

I'm still learning and just needed some help. Basically I want to add a link on a webpage, that contains the web-friendly version of a document, so that when you click on the link, it will print the printer-friendly version (a pdf). So far, I've got this script:

<a href="http://www.mmanager.com/docs/specs/MM_T.38_IP_Fax_Solutions_for_Avaya.pdf" onclick="window.print()"> Click here to download the printable version</a>


But when click it, it prints a blank page with just the URL and the date. Is there something I'm missing?
