My reading of https://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright is that, under the current terms, printing the link to that page in addition to printing “© OpenStreetMap contributors” would be sufficient. However, I do wonder whether a credit like "“© OpenStreetMap contributors, licensed under https://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright"; might give the mistaken impression that a production paid for a license, so perhaps it would be good to further specify that the text "The data is available under the Open Database License, and the cartography is licensed under Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 2.0" would be preferred. This might improve the visibility of the open licensing scheme.
