If you print a screen shot the text will be part of the image, which
means the resolution will be very low (72 dpi or 96 dpi, depending on
your monitor settings.) This gives jagged text printouts. The fonts
themselves are not sent to the printer when you print a screen shot.

Sounds like you need the command:
print this card from <point> to <point>
For example:
print this card from "0,25" to "200,300"
