| The following Greasemonkey scripts allow you to obtain a simplified printer-friendly view for directions that appear on MapQuest.com. The main script, Print Simple Directions will remove most images, maps and unnecessary information from the printer-friendly direction pages on MapQuest.com. There is an additional helper Greasemonkey script called Jump to Print Directions which will convert all of the direction forms on MapQuest.com to jump straight to the printer-friendly view when you request directions. You can use either script separately, or both at once. They are designed to work based on the page layout of MapQuest.com at the time of this release. |

This Greasemonkey script will reformat the driving directions you receive in printer-friendly mode from MapQuest.com. It will remove the ad and most images, as well as duplicated text and unnecessary information. It also re-arranges some of the information to provide a more compact printer-friendly page. There are two variables in the script that you can alter to change the default behavior in case you wish to keep the directional images or the map images. This functionality can also be toggled using the 'User Script Commands' feature of Greasemonkey. To install this script:
- Use the Firefox web browser with the Greasemonkey extension installed
- Download the mqd_printsimple.user.js script
- Click on the 'Tools' menu in Firefox & select the 'Install This User Script' item

This is a very simple Greasemonkey script that will bypass the intermediate page between the driving directions input form and the print directions page. You can use it in combination with the above script, or on its own. To install this script:
- Use the Firefox web browser with the Greasemonkey extension installed
- Download the mqd_jumptoprint.user.js script
- Click on the 'Tools' menu in Firefox & select the 'Install This User Script' item
One downside to this script is that it will not save addresses you enter into the "--RECENT SEARCHES--" area. |
