If your forms are in PDF format, and you don't actually need an exact
physical copy with the signature in ink, you could look into using
Xournal.
http://xournal.sourceforge.net/

Use the "Annotate PDF" feature to sign the PDF by using the pen tool,
or the image tool to import a previously made signature image. You can
scale and move the signature to get it where you want it. Use "Export
to PDF" to create a new PDF of the form with your signature merged in.
You only need to print if you want your own hard copy of the document,
and you still save the initial "print the form --> sign it" steps.
