Does it work with DRM files that have print restrictions?

I would love to do the same, but when you're dealing with a monopoly such as 
an international standards body, that's not an option.

Yes, some companies and organizations forget that the goal is to maximize 
the profit, rather than prevent unathorized use. I don't buy HP printers, 
and if I have a choice I will avoid DRM protected stuff as well.
