I'm not sure how to fix that myself, sorry.  But I do remember it
occuring sometimes on certain webpages, printing from mozilla. I believe
things improved with a later version of Xprint.  Which version are you
using at the moment?

One workaround might be to play around with your fonts.  Xprt gets the
order of its font directories (see "ps aux | grep [X]prt")  rearranged
somewhat differently to the X server (see "xset -q").  Possibly a
different font on paper is being substituted to the one on screen.

You can run the Xprt command line by hand if you have to, in order to
experiment with a different order.
