Is it possible to have different colors for on screen and hardcopy display of hyperref links in the same file?

In my thesis, I like the functionality of linking reference numbers to the reference entry in the bibliography and I like having the pubmed links in the bibliography work. Having the links be blue or red helps indicate that they are clickable. But the links don't have any use in a printed copy. As is they come out a shade of grey when printed.

I know I can generate two different PDFs with different color settings, but I was wondering if there is some way to make the links come out solid black when printed but simultaneously display in color on the screen from the same PDF?

A: 

Look at the thread "Colored hyperref links" on comp.text.tex.
