Stopping students from printing quizzes

I learned today that there is apparently code that you can add to a quiz so that students cannot print it out.

You can access the discussion thread on this topic in the Ask DrC forums.

    One possible student retaliation (among thousands) — use Firefox and the Web Developer extension’s “Disable CSS (Print)” and “Disable JavaScript” — back to square one. These options can be set per page, so WebCT wouldn’t complain about not having JavaScript enabled. I’d think somehow designing the course so it doesn’t matter whether the quizzes get out would be better than an escalating arms race…
