I'm certain that I don't understand the layout, because from the 
description it sounds like you have an object which is not visible and 
therefore cannot be printed but which is causing a problem when printed.

I'm sure you've considered simply hiding the thing you don't want shown 
during printing, so clearly there's something else in play here.

What does the object contribute to printing?
