The PDF goes through different rendering paths for display vs print. It's GDI+ for display, and WPF with an XPS spool file for print. So my guess is whatever does PDF to XPS filtering/conversion is getting something wrong; but then it could be complicated by an addtitional bug in the print driver which is why the report says the bug depends on what printer is used for printing.

printing to pdf should be independent of printer.
