why would you want such a thing?
if your code is css-based, why not including the @media print {} in your
style-sheet(s)? using JS to switch between media-types seems a bit odd
(IMO).
media-type 'screen' is for screen, print will only be used for print as
being used by the users UA. so don't break the users UA :-)
