  interesting to hear! So the printing limitation is caused by the
 Open Layer Plugin and not by the Google WMS(?).
 I hope new versions of the Open Layer Plugin will address this
problem...

There is no Google WMS, they are static tiles. The two plugins make two 
different workarounds to use them. OpenLayers Plugin is great for
display, 
however I expect big problems with proper printing, so wouldn't be 
optimistic...

I wonder if it's possible to use GoogleMaps in Qgis directly via GDAL
TMS 
driver. I'm able to open it, but can't cope with colors: Google serves
8bit 
pngs, while Qgis needs RGB. Maybe other gdal versions do it more
smoothly?

On the http://www.gdal.org/frmt_wms.html you have a link to the
OpenStreetMap 
TMS Service Example: 

http://www.gdal.org/frmt_wms_openstreetmap_tms.xml

Just download this file and open in Qgis as a raster. You shold see OSM
layer 
with proper or bad colors ;) In order to use googlemaps instead of OSM, 
replace the third line of the file with: 

ServerUrlhttp://mt0.googleapis.com/vt?lyrs=m@144amp;x=${x}amp;y=${y}
amp;z=${z}/ServerUrl
