What I want to do is to figure out that I actually print on the printer ( so that later I do other stuff, like update printing date fields in the DB)
But the print event also occurs when I just preview or when I change the print margins from the access environment menus that I
insert into my app.

What can I do?

TIA

No, no,
I mean I just want to know that the report is actually sent to the printer
(or maybe spooler) and not only previewed

Well, you can tell if the report was opened for preview by
setting a module level variable in the report's Activate
event and testing it in some other later event. But this
won't be able to tell you if the report was sent to the
printer from the preview window.
