Check the user's Windows printer setup to see if there is a setting for "Use built-in fonts ONLY", "Automatic font substitution", or something like that. I have seen drivers with those kinds of options, that will substitute the closest font. Solved it by checking "Always download fonts".

Have you asked the user to open Wordpad or Word and choose Arial Narrow to see if it can print on that printer? That would show if it's a VFP report problem, or just a user's printer setup or font installation problem.
