    right click in the IFrame and select "Print"

    this will print the page inside the iframe.


    Alternately you could have a button that says "click here to print" or something like that... try this:

    In the page that's inside the iframe put this:

    Code:
    <a href="#" onClick="print(); return false;">click here to print this page</a>
    that should work.

                  I have used above to print a pdf document in an iframe successfully on firefox, but it doesn't seem to work on IE8. The print dialog comes up, but nothing prints.

                  Anybody else experienced this, or know how to make it work.
