I dont think you should set element.style.display to "block", if the 
element should be visible only on screen and not in print. It would be 
better to dynamically assign it a class which is defined in the 
stylesheet to be visible on screen and not in print. (Its a bit tricky 
to add and remove class names, but still cleaner than using print events.)
