LCD TV can work as a monitor, provided it has the necessary plugs, like VGA. The resolution however will be very low in most cases, to the point where you may have difficulty using some applications. The print should be fine, since it is mostly independent from the screen display, unless you are doing print screen, in witch case it will be very low resolution, just like the screen. DVI or VGA will both work, but the TV/Monitor has to have at least on of them too.
In a nutshell, TV sets, even if they have the necessary plugs make for some very poor viewing when in comes to connecting them to a computer, unless you want to use the configuration for media viewing, where both the application and the media are designed to work at the TV resolution, your results will be poor at best.
