No offense, but I think the level of effort and time hours exhausted on this will be More costly that what it is worth. Again coming back to the conclusion that the end User could print it once, and then copy it multiple times. Thus, using it many times Over. So in the end what would have been accomplished? Printing it once? Big Deal. That's why there are copiers.
Now going off what some others have suggested, using a bar-coded format and maybe So sort of way of validating the coupon has been used, then you have a way of controlling The cost that would be issued by the coupon. Again, most of your major grocery stores do not care if you use the same type of coupon Over and over, just on different visits. Still buying the product. They do not care if You are the same person or not. Now taking another approach, like Best Buy, I get the Member Rewards coupons and I am Assuming when those are used, the coupon has my information on the barcode and they also Scan my Reward Zone card. I guess this is their way of saying, yes the person is who they Say they are. I would suggest asking whomever the client is or the Project Manager on this task to see If it is really cost effective to put forth the effort in making it only print once based On the fact that it really wouldn't matter much.

Maybe i'll just make Flashpaper my default printer ;) then when your little activex control pritns it, I'll get to save it as a pdf, even though I don't get the print dialog. Pfththth!
