How about this Xresource? (not quite what you wanted but similar);

xterm*VT100.Translations:    #override \
        <Key>Print:     string("eval `/usr/X11R6/bin/resize`") string(0x0d) \n\
        Shift<Key>Up:   scroll-back(1,line) \n\
        Shift<Key>Down: scroll-forw(1,line) \n\
        <Key>Prior:     scroll-back(1,page) \n\
        <Key>Next:      scroll-forw(1,page) \n\
        <Key>Home:      scroll-back(1000,page) \n\
        <Key>End:       scroll-forw(1000,page)

Page up/down for screen up/down, shift arrow up/down for line up/down,
Home/End for start/end of scrollback and PrtSc to get resize evaluated.
