Is there any way to disable printing from a browser? In other words, if i create a page with some important information that I want people to view but not print, is there any way of disabling printing?
 
Basically, no, you can't prevent people from accessing normal browser functions. Disabling things in people's browsers is considered rude, as well. As well, any page that is viewed on the Internet is also stored on the computer to be viewed offline if desired. Web pages on the Internet are NOT a good medium for displaying sensitive or secure data that isn't meant to be saved, printed, or downloaded.
