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.)
