I wonder how much of this is a cyclical "we know the printing functions
aren't well developed, so we won't use them" - therefore, there is no
clamor to improve the printing functions.

I agree with this wholeheartedly. We have an application (CD-based
performance coaching) in which the manager and rep choose activities
from a list and print out the development activities with descriptions
and actions. Right now, I simply export everything out to a text file
and ask the user to print the file. Not very seamless, I must say. I've
done similar functions in both SC and HC - this is a relatively simple
procedure in those systems. Printing, even rudimentary printing of the
contents of specific fields, is important to my company.
