Where are you from? AFAIK in Germany, you cannot prevent printing
legally (just practically e.g. by disabling it in PDF), since prints may
not be made because of permission of the author but because of
provisions in copyright law.
It is possible that CC+ can help you, so that no new (well, although CC+
is new) CC-license is needed...
Yours
Karl
