I have this PDF file that has a gigantic DRAFT watermark on every single page. My teacher handed us his version of the printed pdf and it says on paper where it is printed from but on his version the DRAFT watermark is missing. When I print from the same page as his, the draft watermark is there.

I should mention that he owns everything, including the original TEX files for the PDF. Could it be that he explicitly removes the DRAFT before he prints?

Is there a way to print this PDF without the watermark or is that impossible?

You could open the PDF on an editor like Adobe Acrobat -you can download and install a trial version- or PDFedit (an open source, free editor that works on Linux and Windows that I haven't tried myself), but if the PDF is protected you may not be able to remove the watermark.

Also, I would ask the professor if it is ok to remove the watermark as it may have something to do with copyright.
