Printed version vs paper version | WordReference Forums
Jun 16, 2010 · A printed version implies you have printed a copy of something from a version on the computer and a paper version (although here in the UK I think it's more common to refer to it as a paper copy) is a version of a document that is actually on paper as opposed to on the computer.
