problem with print on a views page

Thanks for such a wonderful module .

I just noticed one problem wit the print module. I will try and explain in the best possible way i can.

I have just created a view with the following path to create a tab on the node page itself.
node/%/example

and through the printer settings I have enabled the printer friendly link on this page by using this
node/*/example

till now everything is fine and the printer friendly link shows there as well.

But the problem arises when I click the link and the link goes to
print/nid/example

and the print page view i get the node to print and not the view.

But if I change the view path to something else
ie example/nid

and do the same process it show the view tables perfectly .

So I feel there is some problem with the way the urls are handled when it is w.r.t to nodes .
