I don't know how to do this under OS X, but you might want to check 
whether the
fonts are being downloaded to the printer as outlines or being used off a
built-in font cache. Then try the other and see if there is improvement. For
comparison, check (in the advanced printer properties) under Windows what the
"correctly printing" configuration is.

Good luck,
