I believe that unstable is now using Postscript Type 1 versions of
the Computer Modern fonts.  Stable used metafont to create bitmaps
for your printer.  If you didn't configure the metafont mode dvips
was set to use, you could certainly be getting bitmaps that look
wrong on your printer. 

You can check if I'm right, by using dvips on your stable system with 

dvips -Pcmz file.dvi -o file.ps

and seeing if that prints correctly.  If so, add

p +psfonts.cmz

to /etc/texmf/dvips/config.ps

Hope this helps and is correct... I don't use Debian's tetex much.
