Well, I just set up a stack with a field "fPRINT" containing some text, 
and put this in a button:

on mouseUp
   revPrintField ("field" && quote & "fPRINT" & quote) -- mental syntax
end mouseUp

and, as I don't have a printer to hand, it printed to a Postscript file 
(Linux) which looked
exactly the same as the textField.

Maybe, just maybe, your paper was wonky in the printer tray . . . :)
