WebMaker pages are just HTML, CSS and Javascript, so the browser Print dialogue should work if you just need a draft copy of the page. Depending on the version of WebMaker you are using, you may be able to use the Print this Web page Link control under the Print Controls palette section to insert a suitable link on the resulting page. This is useful if you want to show a print icon on the page itself for end users. This essentially uses the window.print() script call, which you can use on your page using custom script if required.
If you need more detailed control over the printable version of your pages, which may be very different to the web version, then you can associate separate CSS files (app map page) and change the styling of your pages on the screen before using the browser print option.
We can use the native JavaScript function to launch the Print window. The WebMaker version 4 that was shipped with BizFlow 12.0 has nice looking icon in the pallets. It is just calling the browser's javascript print feature though. I found some other helpful links via Google search on "print web page using javascript"
