You da man, Jim.

With this hint, I think I know how to fix Bart's config files.

Bart, you can do one of two things:

1. Wait for me to find time to help you.
2. Google for: firefox print postscript

You basically need to find the about:config setting that will render
to Postscript (level 2 is best, I think) before sending the job to the
printer. That should fix your font problem, I think.
