Been trying to figure this out forever, how can I completely disable or remove the printable view?

SITUATION: Our VB forum is for copier and printer technicians so the word "print" occasionally shows up as the last word of a post's title which, because we also utilize Dragonbyte Tech SEO rewrites for our URLs, causes the post to display in the printable view where another user cannot reply (see sample URL in the code block below). Rather than using rewrites to do something with the word "print" in the URLs I would rather just 100% remove/disable the printable view since it's never used and won't be missed. I've tried a few things with permissions but that just leaves users hanging with a message that they're not allowed. Any or thought on how I can completely remove the printable view? (I'm currently running vb v4.2.5)
