Embed an Excel sheet with =NOW() in a cell. The sheet won't reevaluate until you access it, so create a macro that accesses it, then prints the drawing. All you have to do is then run the macro.

When the Header/Footer dialogue window comes up, select where you want your date and time, and in what format.

I finally discovered that this is saved in the DOCUMENT TEMPLATE.
This was one-of-those-things; I knew there had to be a simple solution.

No macro needed. Do what MadMango said in your template. Print the template to set the date & time. Now save your template.
