On a Mac at least, you go to the "PrintingSettings->Headers and Footers' menu
and put the following text in the header or footer box (I usually put it in the
center header box):
Cell[ TextData[ {ValueBox[ "Date"], ", ", ValueBox[ "Time"]}], "Header"]
To print date and time within a notebook,use
Print["Evaluated on ",Date[]\[LeftDoubleBracket]2\[RightDoubleBracket],"/",
Date[]\[LeftDoubleBracket]3\[RightDoubleBracket],"/",
Date[]\[LeftDoubleBracket]1\[RightDoubleBracket]," at ",
Date[]\[LeftDoubleBracket]4\[RightDoubleBracket],":",
Date[]\[LeftDoubleBracket]5\[RightDoubleBracket],":",
Date[]\[LeftDoubleBracket]6\[RightDoubleBracket]," .\n"];
(That needs to be de-formatted, but it's what you want.
