Interesting. I can't remember when I printed last from NetBeans but I guess in 
your case you would need a combobox next to 'Print as in Editor' that offers 
the Profiles from Options | Fonts and Colors?

Alternatively it would also help you if you could clone the editor with another 
Profile and print that one.

Both ideas need some code writing so perhaps it would help to report the idea 
here https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/NETBEANS/issues/ You could also 
give it a try yourself, the editor code is big but it makes sense when you jump 
into it.
