All on the same network printer, different network printers, or local printers?
If different printers:
Could a difference in available fonts on the different printers be causing strings to be wider than textbox's defined width, and get word-wrapped? (I'm trying hard to remember if hard-coded text objects in 2.x reports have a width setting.)
The way you typed your example looks like the text is being word-wrapped to a certain width. The OS, the printer driver, the workstation spooler, or the network spooler may be involved in this...
Is the offending computer set (in its printer definition) to send raw data, and not spool DOS print jobs?
(Several shots in the dark.)
