I noticed that rather often people here ask for a "print selection" feature. Usually recent switchers. So I wrote a service that fills this perceived gap. It adds a menu item to the Services menu that allows you to print the current selection. Get it here:

This is cool, but I am wondering if most switchers are wanting to use this on web pages, and in Safari, you don't get the services menu. Could you add it to Safari somehow? Or am I missing how to use this with Safari?
Thanks

Safari supports the Services menu, so this service works with it.

The service is called "Print Selection". You need to log out before any app sees it.
