Enter PrintFriendly, a new site that simply lets you enter the URL of a webpage and get a printable version: just the content and inline images, in a very readable font. If you want, you can go one step further and remove the images from the post. You can also download the content as a PDF. Neat!

It doesn't work perfectly: sites that have in-text widgets (like Sphere's site previews or Blippr's review widgets) don't convert particularly well. PrintFriendly could compensate for these issues by allowing you to edit the document before printing. Nonetheless, it's a handy tool to have at your fingertips should you ever need a quick printout without wasting ink.
