I've seen some troubles in printing what is shown on screen:
- check out the setting for the printable area on the printer and the
settings in the page setup.
- some printers replace your TrueType font settings with their own. They
try to be smart and look pretty dumb in the end. The exact size, spacing
and kerning of your TT Times Roman may not be the same as the printer's
replacement. Go to the options of the printer driver and set an option
to send characters as graphics. Printing will take slightly longer, but
it will print as ordered.
