I think the usual way to handle this type of situation is to use the split function and split on the slash character. That will give you a list, with each element in the list being text in the original URL that was separated by a slash. Then insert the "v-print" text into the list, then reassemble using slashes.
Like this:
Code:
    def print_version(self, url):
        parts = url.split('/')
        print_url = 'http://' + parts[2] + '/' + parts[3] + '/' + parts[4] + '/' + parts[5] + '/'  + parts[6] \
                + '/v-print/' + parts[7] + '/' + parts[8]
        return print_url
