Ctrl+Shift+P to Print Selection in Google Chrome

Ever since switching to Chrome a few years ago I’ve missed the ‘print selection’ feature where you can print just a highlighted block of text. You can choose to print only certain page numbers in Chrome, but if the piece you want spans a page break you end up with a bunch of superfluous garbage printed.

Luckily someone posted a “hack” around this limitation by using the system print dialog instead of Chrome’s: Ctrl+Shift+P. It would be nice if Google made this feature native but until then this gets the job done nicely.
