Rather than count print work (or programming ability) as a negative, I'd say just focus on the interaction design work (and specifically web design work, which is a subset of interaction design that has constraints — and specifically Drupal-specific web design experience with an understanding of what Drupal brings to the table, which is a subset of web design) when looking for a web designer for a Drupal project.
