Is it possible to insert something into the footer, that would identify the
user who printed the report?
 
Just add a text box and set its value equal to a function that returns the
user's name.

If you've applied Access Security, so that your users need to log into your
application, you can use the CurrentUser function.

If you haven't applied security, and want to display their network id, check

Thanks, its always so easy after a small hint. I tried user, but not
CurrentUser as one word.
