If it's a postscript printer, then there is probably some 
non-standard/printer-incompatible postscript in your output --- this is why 
the latest is not always the greatest. Star/OpenOffice have serious problems 
here.

With latex, I found that ps printers (HP lasers) can't handle some compressed 
image formats (png, jpeg) that have been converted to eps (with ImageMagik 
"convert" or the Gimp). So I always convert images to xpm before converting 
to eps.
