See below.

My test has been `emacs /usr/pub/ascii', followed by `ESC-X
print-buffer'. One thing I also noticed is that the page header looks
like this:
Jun 11 11:25 2007 a Emacbuff Page 1
I replaced lpr.elc and lpr.el in /usr/local/share/emacs/22.1/lisp
with copies from emacs/21.2/lisp. After that, the page header was:
Jun 12 10:10 2007 ascii Emacs buffer Page 1
The rest of the file was correct too.

I was able to capture the file before it went to the printer.
My test was `emacs -q --no-site-file /usr/pub/ascii', followed by
`ESC-X print-buffer'. Here's the beginning of the file:

Here's the same test after I did ``(setq lpr-page-header-switches '("-F"))'':
