This source from 2012 says you can detect print requests in IE 5+, Firefox 6+, Chrome 9+, and Safari 5.1+ (Opera didn't work).

(function() {
    var beforePrint = function() {
        console.log('Functionality to run before printing.');
    };
    var afterPrint = function() {
        console.log('Functionality to run after printing');
    };

    if (window.matchMedia) {
        var mediaQueryList = window.matchMedia('print');
        mediaQueryList.addListener(function(mql) {
            if (mql.matches) {
                beforePrint();
            } else {
                afterPrint();
            }
        });
    }

    window.onbeforeprint = beforePrint;
    window.onafterprint = afterPrint;
}());

Having caught the events you can then do something special for your iframe where it says

console.log('Functionality to run before printing.');
