The process in question opens, modifies, prints and

suspend input until the script finishes? If so how?
Don't use GUI scripting then. Use Excel AppleScripting.
GUI scripting is a poor relation to be used for unscriptable apps when
there's no alternative.
How does scripting Excel directly prevent user input while the script
is executing? I have several Excel scripts I run weekly, and I'm not
prevented from changing data while the script runs.
