Your problem sounds like a TrueType fonts related one. This is not
necessarily related to the Linux or NT server: I have the same problem
when printing _directly_ (no spooler, no server) to an HP 4MV printer
from a Mac. I had to select "prefer TrueType" font and so on in the
printing configuration dialog box for it to print everything ok. So,
I assume you can deal with this problem with your Mac's configuration.
Hope this helps
