That will definitely remove the password protection ... if it works.  
In most cases you don't get to the print dialog without the password.

But if you have an old Jaguar around, you can use Preview for that:  
This old version ignores password settings, so you can do as Randy  
suggested.

The output might look slightly different though (e. g. colors)

Alternatively there are some password crackers available as shareware  
as was mentioned in a previous post. Note that all of these incl. the  
password trick only work for password-protected but non-encrypted PDFs.
