Last year I flew ICN-NRT on OZ and NRT-ORD on NH. The OZ desk at Incheon printed my onward ticket but I never figured out if that was really necessary.
It is a very good idea to have a print of your e-ticket for flights like this. If you stay within one alliance it is easier than if you change alliance. Be aware that Zipair only really allows connections to a few of their own flights, so they will not allow you to board with a connection to another airline.
