I don't know which is the right forum to put this question in, but I will start here.

Does anyone know how to edit the print action so that when you print something the edit pencils are removed?

If you are using a Print skin object, you should be able to specify which skin and container be used for the print friendly display (check out inventua.com Printer Friendly skin object). In that container file, you can simplify the design by not including any of the icons, titles, etc. that you don't want.

An example would be the user defined table. If I try and print one of the udt modules and I have edit rights, you see all of the edit pencils for each line in the print view.

I see. In this case, simple print object isn't going to help. You'll have to set up CSS in your printer-friendly skin to make pencils invisible or pop-it on a different domain (i.e. if you are on www.yoursite.com, pop it to yoursite.com without www - this will make DNN think that user is not logged in...) This is definitely a band-aid, though.

Another way would be to pass some kind of flag to the popped instance of UDT that can be interpreted by UDT to not show editing fields...

[edit] Better yet (and, since I don't know UDT, I don't know if it's possible) if there is a way to define an alternate display of the same data without edit column altogether but displaying the same exact data otherwise and use that for PrinterFriendly views.

If you don't mind dropping out ALL images that are contained within a link (i.e. anchor tag) when printing you could try adding the following to the particular module's module.css file:

@media print {A IMG {display: none}}

It would be even better to add an attribute selector as follows (since the IMG tag for the edit.gif icon should define the attribute alt="edit"):

@media print {A IMG[alt="edit"] {display: none}}

HOWEVER, it is my understanding that Internet Explorer prior to IE 7 does not recognise the CSS2 attribute selector and that IE 7 will only do so when the !DOCTYPE STRICT is used.

Another possibility to further restrict the style selection to just the edit pencil icons would be to add a class attribute to the IMG tag of each edit pencil icon  in the control's .ascx file and include this class in the CSS selector. I don't like to see changes made to core module files, however, as these modifications are lost on later upgrades unless you remember to modify the upgraded file as well.
