I have no solution, unfortunately, but I can add that I see similar problems. 
In my case, the printer is a HP LaserJet 1320. The page looks perfectly fine on 
screen; when I print it out, several Greek letters are replaced by questions 
marks in a small rectangular box. When I compile the same file with regular 
context mkiv, everything is printed as intended. So I’m at a loss…

you can run with

\nopdfcompression

i suspect that that printer is sensitive for some pdf font flag or so 
(not sure what rip is in it)

Hi

in lmtx the pdf output routine has changed afaik. I just wanted to

with a tikz-figure, the tikz-figure (without labels, as they are text)

prevents me to use lmtx at out school.


MWE:

\starttext
That is a test.
\stoptext


Any font?

Of course there is no problem with the preview and the output works on a 
HP-Printer.

hard to say ... we output rather straightforward pdf 1.7

Hi

converting the document to ps and back to pdf works (pdf2ps and ps2pdf).
But I think there must be a simpler solution...
