How to print an entire thread?

Is there any way to print out an entire thread at once? For instance, Mrs. PTravel and I are going to Buenos Aires in a couple of weeks, and I'd like to print out the BA F&B thread to take with us.

Thanks.

Wouldn't you just go to "Thread Tools->Show Printable Version"? Or, is there something else you're looking for?

The "printable version" selection still requires printing page by page, which can take a while for long threads. I was hoping there was something that would do the entire thread at once.

Okay, with clarification, there is an easy workaround.

Just print the archived thread.

E.g., this thread 'Is it legal to prevent coach to disembark before first class, or just tacky?' takes up a number of pages, but the archives will let you see every post on one page, thus allowing you to print the whole thing:

So, find the thread number of the thread you want to print, and replace it with the one linked above.

I'm having trouble getting a super long thread onto one screen using the (perhaps dated) procedure outlined below. Specifically, I'd like to print the UA SFO-AKL deal thread to PDF and save it on my laptop so that I can entertain myself for the 14.5 hour flight next week by reliving the drama of the deal! (And of course, there's a lot of good info in there too.) Anyway, I'm having trouble getting the right link -- I tried:

http://flyertalk.com/forum/archive/i.../t-690390.html

But this still gives me 20 pages (which admittedly is better than 120 +/-! But is there a way to get this all onto *one* page for easy PDF printing to file? Thanks a lot.

I figured I'd post here, where this answer seems like it ought to be rather than make that thread even longer......
