If the question is asking whether European Powers (specifically, Great Britain, France, Italy, and Russia) established colonies, protectorates, mandates, and spheres of influence in the Middle East, the answer is: Yes.
However the question as phrased is a little difficult to understand. It is unclear what "successfully controlling" something means. If it refers to an intentional re-molding of society like what the Spaniards did in Latin America, than the Europeans did not "successfully control" the Middle East. Additionally, if "successfully controlling" refers to having power and authority over all parts of the Middle East, the Europeans did not "successfully control" the Middle East since Saudi Arabia was always independent of the West and Turkey effectively fought off attempts to carve spheres of influence into its territory.

How was the Middle East affected by the introduction of the printing press?
It was not affected. The printing-press was not introduced into the Middle East until the late 1800s with the Tanzimat Reforms of the Ottomans.

Understandably, the failure to use the printing press in the Arab world earlier prevented the continued rise of the Islamic States and was one of many reasons why the Europeans were far more technologically advanced by the 1800s.

The empires in the Middle East and North Africa in the late 1700s and early 1800s were centuries behind the Europeans in military technology. Early machine-guns called "Gatling Guns" would mow down thousands of musket-wielding Arabs. Each "battle" between the Europeans and the Arabs would be a massacre and so, many Arab states conceded defeat, like Egypt. Other parts of the Middle East, like the Levant or Mesopotamia, were under Ottoman control and were acquired by the British and the French as a result of the Treaty of Versailles.
