It's harder to remove material from a printed edition of Wikipedia. This means any printed version must cut away a degree of the content.
This makes the problem with a compromise clearer: If we flag all "fair use" images and accept them, they will discourage the hunt for non-copyrighted similar material - the article already has a picture. (IMO, of course.)
A printed edition (or even a CD edition) has been frequently mentioned on people's wish lists. Until people realistically start talking about how to fund such an undertaking, I have a hard time considering the idea as anything more than a pipe-dream.
Flagging fair use images is fine, as would flagging all possibly copyright impaired contributions where the situation is uncertain. In a printed edition, the flagged material could then be easily excluded.
Coding boxes :-) could work very well for that.
