Dan,
I'm not so sure Norman has a case of "a printer that doesn't quite work right with JMRI" so much as it might be that "JMRI (or Java?) doesn't work quite right with some printers".
I opened a bug a while back about 2-sided printing. When printing a manifest with double-sided set as the default for the printer, JMRI simply does not honor the 2-sided option without some manual intervention:

As described in that bug, I had the same issue with two different printers from two different manufacturers so it's not likely the printer. The manual interventions to make it work differed slightly, but the bottom line in both cases was that JMRI ignored the default settings for that particular printer.
It sounds like Norman may have hit another variation of this same bug, with JMRI refusing to honor the printer's default settings.

Norman,
Instead of sending the file to the printer, try the "Microsoft XPS Document Writer" and send the output to me to review. You might have a printer that doesn't quite work right with JMRI.
