Is there a way to stop propagation of keyboard shortcuts in IE?

Here's the code I'm using and the methods I've tried already, they work in Chrome and Firefox:

$j(document).on('keydown', function (e) {
    if(e.keyCode == 80) {
        if(ctrl_key == 'yes') {
            do_something();

            e.preventDefault();
            e.stopPropagation();    
            e.cancelBubble = true;      

        }
    }
});

$j(document).on('keypress keyup', function (e) {
if(e.keyCode == 80) {
    if(ctrl_key == 'yes') {
        e.preventDefault();
        e.stopPropagation();    
        e.cancelBubble = true;      
    }
}
});

This is for the print function (ctrl + p)

Is there any way top stop this behavior?

Cross-browsers method :

$j(document).on('keydown', function (e) {
    var key = e.charCode ? e.charCode : e.keyCode ? e.keyCode : 0;
    if(e.ctrlKey && key == 80) {
        e.preventDefault();
        e.stopPropagation();  
        alert("CTRL + P pressed");
        return false;
    }
});

You need to select the "document", click in the render panel or in the edit box before test http://jsfiddle.net/PTauw/99/
