Does anyone know where the option to print an infopath form (in my case a customized list form) exists in SharePoint 2010?

In MOSS this functionality comes out of the box but either I am missing something really simple or my environment isn't set up properly.

Does anyone have any suggestions they can offer?

Cheers

This functionality is also built into SP2010 / Infopath 2010. However there is no way to configure it within Sharepoint - but only in InfoPath.

In Infopath under File > Info > Form Options you have several possibilities to restrict users from doing stuff with your form. To get the print functionality you need to enable the InfoPath Ribbon ("Show InfoPath commands in Ribbon or toolbar" and also the Print Preview option and you are good to go. See the below image for the correct settings in the dialog: enter image description here
