This is a known problem, and we are going to have a new gnome-print package pushed next week if all goes well. Then we can start fixing these issues...Currently Ximian ships a very old version of gnome-print (0.25), that contains A LOT of cirtical i18n-related bugs. gnome-print-0.29 with most of the bugs fixed is available since May.. Not shipping gnome-print-0.29 is a biggest mistery of Ximian GNOME to me (add to that the fact that the main developer of gnome print is hired by Ximian)!!!
Thanks for pointing out these problems.
