How can I accomplish that? The idea is that XForms handles form processing only, with appearance and so on coming from CSS. Printing is also best achieved with CSS. Take a look at @media in the CSS spec. I know that IE supports 'screen' and 'print' as two different types for @media (newer versions of CSS are adding 'mobile', 'aural', and all sorts of things), and Mozilla and X-Smiles have good CSS support so no doubt they will have these types, too. So, in short, you can already do what you want, although not all pseudo classes may be implemented in all brwosers yet.
