Since, removing or commenting out the HTML element throws error, remove or comment the following lines from viewer.js to remove Print, Download, Open features (you can also remove any one of these since you only need to remove print):

eventBus.on('beforeprint', _boundEvents.beforePrint);
eventBus.on('afterprint', _boundEvents.afterPrint);
eventBus.on('openfile', webViewerOpenFile);
eventBus.on('print', webViewerPrint);
eventBus.on('download', webViewerDownload);

And as a precuation I would suggest disabling the document property request by disabling the concerned event too, so remove or comment

eventBus.on('documentproperties', webViewerDocumentProperties);

For being on the safe side, also remove or comment the eventBus.off for each of the events above. For example:

eventBus.off('print', webViewerPrint);

I couldn't tell you the line numbers of these codes exactly since my viewer.js has been modified beyond restoration to it's original form.

Finally, add hidden attribute to the HTML elements or figure out some other way to hide it, but whatever you do, do not remove or comment the HTML elements.
