Date stamp in pages/pdf

I have created a manual in Pages and exported it as a pdf file. I can set it up so that when it is printed from Pages the current date will be included. However the users of this manual will be restricted from editing the document, which is why they have access in pdf format. I would like to be able to set it up so that if anybody printed the pdf file it included the date of the day on which it is printed. Is this possible please?

iMac Intel, Mac OS X (10.6.8), MacBook Intel (10.4.11)

Thanks Peter. I think I may not have explained it clearly. I have already set the document up in Pages to update the date and time on opening and thus if it is printed it will print with the most recent date (and time) ie the date and time it was most recently opened.

I would like the same to take place when printing from the pdf file that is created when the Pages file is 'exported'. Is this possible; I believe it probably isn't.
