[Xprint] Xprint using the wrong font(s)?

Sorry if this is a newbie question but it doesn't seem to be addressed in
the FAQ:
I recently installed release 009.001 from RPM onto an RH9 machine. I've
manually-configured it for 3 printers (each is a Postscript Level 2 printer).
xplsprinters looks good. But while I'm able to print to these printers using
Firefox, the printed font is invariably wrong. It appears that the font being
printed is always b&h-lucida blackletter-.
The good news is, this is a Truetype font on this machine and the resulting
print quality is nice. The bad news is Xprint seems to only use this font.
This seems odd since I'd think if it's able to find this particular TT font, it
should be able to find any of the dozens of other TT fonts in the same directory
including Arial and/or Courier (gfontsel and Firefox itself seems to find
them).
Does Xprint have an "always use this font" setting that I've missed somewhere?
Thanks.
Jimmie
