[Forum] How do you turn off the printer friendly version of the forum?

[Bryanb]

There is a printer friendly version of my forum being indexed by google - /printthread.php?t=1234 This may be an issue with being penalized by Panda. Is there a way to turn off the "printer friendly" version? I cannot find the switch. And I'm not sure if any one uses this at all.

Other than edit the templates, I'm not sure you can.

Thanks. Is there a link to the printer friendly version? I remember seeing it in the past (or finding it somehow), I just can't remember.

I can probably disallow the printthread file via robots.txt file. I'm not quite sure how to do this though.
