Printing a particular area of a page

On my website I'm keeping a blog. Currently when I print a page, the printout would include Google ads, and logos and buttons that I don't really want to appear on a printout. All the content I want to be printable is contained within one <div> tag. Is it possible to make it, so that if you go to print a page, only the content within this <div> tag is printed?

create a print style sheet and have the containers you don't need set with display:none;

<link media="print" ... rest of style sheet stuff >

Excellent, I've successfully created a print style sheet.

How would I then provide a link on a page that can be clicked to print the page, as an alternative to file -> print.

For example, how would I add an image, that when clicked would print the page?
