I was assuming it was covered by the "copy" right, since "print" is a
form of copy, although you could also consider it as being under the
last "allows" - "to shift the work into another format as a verbatim
copy" since you are generally starting digital and going to paper. 

"Every license allows licensees, provided they live up to your
conditions, 
      * to copy the work 
      * to distribute it 
      * to display or perform it publicly 
      * to make digital public performances of it (e.g., webcasting)
      * to shift the work into another format as a verbatim copy"

(from: http://creativecommons.org/learn/licenses/fullrights -- the
server seems to be having problems, but I wanted to find the actual
"license language", which I think Mike was quoting from.)
