Melitón, this is correct in this case: by setting 
whole matches off, you tell Rev that partial 
matches are okay and print is a substring of 
printed. Such a search will find print, 
printable, printed, printing, prints, misprint, 
etc, thus allowing you to look for a word 
regardless of the grammatical or flexical form. 
It will also find print, and print. and print? or 
print! that is a word with punctuation marks. If 
you want exact match, set whole matches on :)
