Try pgfpages in combination with the handout-mode in stead.

\documentclass[handout]{beamer}

% Handout mode
% Remove navigation symbols and save paper
\mode<handout>{%
   \setbeamercolor{background canvas}{bg=black!1}
   \beamertemplatenavigationsymbolsempty
   \usepackage{pgfpages}
   \pgfpagesuselayout{4 on 1}[a4paper,landscape,border shrink=2mm]
}

     \item<2->  Bar
     \item<1,3> Baz
