The built-in Postscript generator in Mozilla/Firefox is unable to
generate valid Postscript. Printing non-latin pages requires to
download fonts containing the non-latin glyph data to the printer and
the way used in the built-in Postscript generator is broken.
You always need to process the PS data with ghostscript to make it
valid. The issue is quite well known, some printer manuals even list
the Mozilla Postscript generator as NIT SUPPORTED (see TEKTRONIX
Phaser 8400B manual, appendix b - both ghostscript and XPrint are
listed as workaround).
