1. Use updateAll()
$this->updateAll( array('printed'=>'Y'), array('printed'=>'N') );
2. Are you sure that "findByPrinted" will return an array of data
without your model key? I would have thought you want
function updatePrintStatus(){
$ret = $this->findByPrinted('N');
foreach($ret as $row){
$this->id = $row['YourModel']['id'];
$this->save(array('printed'=>'Y'));
}
}
3. If that doesn't work, try saving with the id too
$this->save(array('printed'=>'Y','id'=>$row['YourModel']['id']));
