As you can see in my initial message I was trying to play with the new
'printmbcharset' and 'printmbfont' options, but I was unable to force
gVim to print the file in correct encoding. So I was asking for some
help: if there is some happy gVim 7.0 user, who set 'encoding' to
'utf-8' and still was able to print multibyte text? Can you, please,
share your encoding-related settings?


The multi-byte printing support was only for PostScript printing from 
VIM.   I don't believe there is support for multi-byte printing using 
Windows printing yet.  The conversion from the buffer encodinf to the 
print encoding has not yet been added to VIM.

According to version7.txt, multi-byte printing is now supported:

Printing multi-byte text*new-print-multi-byte*

The |:hardcopy| command now supports printing multi-byte characters.
The 'printmbcharset' and 'printmbfont' options are used for this.
Also see |postscript-cjk-printing|.  (Mike Williams)
