When I have a document with characters like ë and the euro sign (my
newsreeder does not let me use this character) then Emacs has problems
printing. A ë becomes severall spaces and after a euro sign Emacs stops
printing. When I print the file from within a shell with 'lpr <file-name>,
the file is correctly printed.
What do I have to do to make printing work correctly in Emacs?

Convert the buffer to UTF-8 encoded HTML, open the HTML output file  
in your preferred browser, and print from there.

GNU Emacs does not support PostScript printing from a different  
encoding than ISO Latin-1 or ISO 8859-1. Modern versions of GNU Emacs  
(CVS?) have ELisp code that tells you that these and some other  
characters cannot be printed.


Lennart Borgman provides the ELisp file htmlize-view.el (formerly  
available at http://ourcomments.org/Emacs/Emacs.html). It uses  
htmlize.el from Hrvoje Nikšić available at http://fly.srk.fer.hr/ 
~hniksic/emacs/htmlize.el.

I will make them more easily available again when I have time. To get 
both files now you can download the zip file with EmacsW32 (only) and 
grap them there:
