I don't how to do that without a macro...
using macro, you can use the event of the workbook BeforePrint like this:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforePrint(Cancel As Boolean)
Cancel = True
End Sub

Not really.

Even if you used Vincnet's suggestion, the user could disable macros (or even
events) and print.

Or even copy your data to a worksheet in another workbook and print from there.

Only by GT-DDS:

Go There and either Disable, Destroy or Steel their printer! ;-)))
