Hi Mark,
I don't print much but do highlight often. I use NW primarily for coding
in a variety of web scripting languages, so it's easy for me to get lost
and confused. I highlight using colors mostly, but sometimes with bold,
bigger size, or a different font, and now and then apply a marker. I use
macros and styles to apply (or remove) some of these universally.

You might want to try creating and applying a style called "highlight" to
add your choice of characteristics to passages, and when printing you may
turn off the characteristics without removing the style, then turn it
back on afterwards.
