I have experienced this problem before many months (or years) ago when I used
SuSE on KDE 3.1 and again on Libranet. The odd thing is I have multiple
machines that are all sync'd as far as distro and software apps go. The only
workstation that experiences this problem is my laptop; both now and long
ago. My work around is to print web pages in Mozilla. Mozilla will print fine
to a postscript file. Konqueror will not print correctly to either the
printer, postscript or pdf. I thought it was some sort of font.config or
printer filter problem because some web pages will print fine but others
won't.

No, if the PostScript font is screwed up then it is the Qt PostScript driver. This has been an issue for some time. This has been improved some with the latest version of Qt (3.3.2).


Part of the issue might be the fonts. You want to be certain that you don't try to print the XFree86 bit mapped screen fonts, and you should have the TrueType fonts that the web page uses installed on your system:
