Is there a desktop-based tool that's used for code reviews or do we just have to print out the code and mark it up by hand?

Do you need desktop-based or just computer based? Check out Crucible:

Crucible's good, but Review Board is free/OSS. http://review-board.org

@Sam Post, thanks for sharing, but not everyone things free/OSS is better. I generally prefer to use commercial software when available.

There's also Kiln from the Joel on Software camp, although it's likely only relevant if you also want to switch SCM to Mercurial.

crucible is great, you can click on a line of code and add comments and everyone in the review can add comments too, I use it and really ahppy with it

Code Collaborator home page: http://smartbear.com/codecollab.php. Including the y and o of you makes it so much easier to read :-)

should this be flagged as advertising or something? Presumably on topic, but it reads like spam. If this product is actually decent it would be unfortunate for them to get a bad name because of this.

I would search Sourceforge's database for Desktop based Code Review tools. And if you're using Windows, Codeplex is a good place to search as well.
Since I don't know why you want only desktop based code review tools (and I don't know which SCM are you using), the best thing IMHO for you is to search and test the solutions presented in both websites, and choose one that fits your needs.
