One way is to use the mediaType print in your css. This css will only be applied when you open you page in print mode. Add following class in your css file:

If you are having a common template for printer friendly pages. I would suggest you to create a seperate page altogether for print version and when user clicks on link navigate it to your new printer friendly page.
