It's not a printing bug, as I understand it.  It's an unfortunate 
feature of GtkHTML.  To make it print correctly, what you need to do is 
Export the report, and edit it - I use Midnight Commander - to add the 
following in the <BODY> tag:  style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: 
9pt", so it looks like this:
<BODY BGCOLOR="#ffffff" style="font-family: helvetica; font-size: 9pt">.
That makes it readable, and it fits the page well.
If you want to use a serified font like Times, you'll probably find you 
need to use 10pt or 11pt.

Good luck
