Printing ticket thread without internal notes
How to print a ticket thread without the internal notes.
Printing a clean ticket thread
Zendesk does not have the ability to print ticket threads without the internal notes. Even if you filter by only public conversations and click the Print ticket action, the generated output will still contain internal comments.
Sometimes there is a need to print ticket threads to share the content with the customers or for documentation purposes.
An easy way of cleaning up the HTML DOM output is by using a javascript bookmarklet to do it.
- Click on your bookmark bar in your browser and select
Add page...
- Give it a name of
Remove Zendesk Internal Notes
- Paste the following code snippet into the URL input box

javascript:(function(){document.getElementById('ccs').remove();document.getElementById('fields').remove();document.getElementById('custom_fields').remove();const list=document.querySelectorAll('#comments > .comment');for(let item of list){const commentChildren=item.children;const mastElement=[].filter.call(commentChildren,element=>[].includes.call(element.classList,'mast'))[0];const mastChildren=mastElement.children;const internalNoteElement=[].filter.call(mastChildren,element=>[].includes.call(element.classList,'internal_note'))[0];if(typeof internalNoteElement!=='undefined'){item.remove()}}})();

To use the bookmarklet, go to any ticket and click Print ticket. That will bring you to a new page with the print dialog opened. Cancel the print dialog and click the Remove Zendesk Internal Notes bookmark to remove the internal notes. Please verify that the content you want removed has been actually removed. You can then print to paper or save as a PDF
