Add print option at the top of a content item or a news item

I was wondering if anyone knows of a script or knows how to add a print button to the top of each news post or the top of each content item.

Specifically I post a news item in the home page. I want users to be able to click on a icon in the upper corner of the post to print it. like joomla does.

This isnt the same as the "printer friendly" request.

(but the printer friendly hack does work nicely with those simple to follow edits)

Thanks
Bobby

Not like this ?

<form>
<input type="button" value="Print this page" onclick="window.print()"/>
</form>

Wow ... seems so simple...
which file/files would I need to put that in?
and where in the file?

I am assuming Nukepath/html/modules/content/index.php for the file, not sure where .. could you give me a "find this" and "insert before" post?

TIA
