Fearless, I printed anyway (8)
I believe the answer is:
intrepid
'fearless' is the definition.
(synonyms)
'i printed anyway' is the wordplay.
'anyway' is an anagram indicator.
'printed' is an anagram of 'ntrepid'.
'i'+'ntrepid'='INTREPID'
(Other definitions for intrepid that I've seen before include "Bold" , "Audacious" , "stout" , "without fear" , "I printed this way, being daring" .)
