Printing backward temporary solved

I find it very interesting that it looks good in Adobe Reader
but printing from Adobe Reader still puts things backwards.  That
leads me to believe that it is NOT a GnuCash problem per se but
rather some inconsistency between the printer driver, printer configuration,
and the Gtk printing system.  Perhaps, for example, the printer is
expecting some setting and Gtk leaves that setting blank?  (I'm only
guessing here).  But if it looks right in Adobe but prints backwards,
that seems to me that it's more of a printing problem.
