Well, I think the ordering still looks a little odd, but given the
difficulty you've stated in changing that I think it will be ok the way

I definitely agree here. Printable Invoice makes it clearer that you are
just setting it up for printing, the former makes it seem like you are
actually printing it (hence my question and confusion)
