Hi Bryce Leo,
by "does that prevent the printing of the work?" do you mean "prevent
physically by a technical measure"? I should hope not :)
Otherwise, the NC ND means - if I understand correctly - that people can
print it for their personal use and the use of their private circle of
friends and relatives (because this is allowed by copyright law in
general). But if they want to use it in print, even for a non commercial
purpose (say, a leaflet about an initiative of a non-profit NGO), then
they have to ask permission, as print is a different medium, and hence
would be a derivative use.
