It's meant for printing rather than improving mobile viewing in any way and unlikely to improve mobile viewing. But yes you can bypass the first page by adding links to particular LO's in the query string e.g.

atcourse.org/xerte2-1/print/print.php?li...de=bottom&Print=View

So change the link to one of your LO's then change the ID for each different LO to which you want to provide a print link.

Thanks for your help Ron. I really like this feature and I'd love to see it developed more as suggested to output epub and pdf.
Cheers

Thank you Ron for your answers!
I need to put a print button in a SCORM player. This button has to print the frame that the user would be seeing.
I understand that with your specific project i can't do that so i would have to develop this.
Have Anybody develop this? I dont know. If someone has any idea i would be very grateful.
Anyway thank you for your job.
Best regards.

You could try something like:

<button onclick="myFunction()">Print this page</button>

<script>
function myFunction() {
window.print();
}
</script>

But you would need to add that to each page and the resulting printed page may not look like you want. Taking screenshots is likely to be better reflection of the way different pages and interactions look.
