Your print skin needs to set the value of $LinkPageExistsFmt 
to include the ?action=print.  You could probably copy print.php
directly from PmWiki's print skin (and rename it to my_print_skin.php
or skin.php).

Are you using the print skin as a skin for whenver the site is
being accessed by a PDA?  If yes, then a better solution might
be to set your configuration to automatically detect when it's
being accessed from a PDA, and to switch skins accordingly.

For example, I once did something like

    if (preg_match('/Windows CE/', $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']))
      $Skin = 'handheld';

to switch to a 'handheld' skin whenever someone accessed the 
site using a Windows CE based browser.  This avoids the need to
try to do anything with ?action=print .
