In English, the word "print" is the same whether it is a verb (to print
something) or a noun (a print of something).

In French, these two have different spellings, "Imprimer" or "Imprimé" (almost
the same, and pronounced the same, but when one is used instead of the other,
it hurts my eyes!)

When the word is in a sentence, it's not too difficult to translate, but in
cases where the string to translate is simply "Print", it is often used in
different cases (noun or verb).

Here are the strings where "Print" is alone

#, c-format
msgid "Print"
msgstr "Imprimer"

#: koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/modules/circ/returns.tt:118
#: koha-tmpl/intranet-tmpl/prog/en/includes/members-toolbar.inc:22
#, c-format
msgid "Print "
msgstr "Imprimer "


In the following pages, it is meant as a verb ("Print" button):
basket.tt
boraccount.tt
routing-preview-slip.tt
cat-toolbar.inc
columns_settings.inc
cashup_summary.inc 
tinymce_i18n.inc
returns.tt
members-toolbar.inc

In the following pages, it is meant as a noun (type of message transport type,
as opposed to email or sms):
letter.tt
overduerules.tt

I propose to add some context where the meaning is the type of message
transport.
