I have no affiliation with zope.org, but i did implement a
printable page feature quite similar to the one you talk
about..

try something like this in your standard_html_header

[untested code]

<dtml-if pp>

<!--simple header with no stylesheets or navigation-->
<HTML>
<HEAD><TITLE><dtml-var title_or_id> - printable version</TITLE></HEAD>
<BODY>
<!--end simple header-->

<dtml-else>
.... your ordinary standard_html_header comes here...
</dtml-if>

If you use a lot of tables and nesting to create your
navigation, you might have to do something similar in the
footer too...
