I've looked through the GEdit code, and it turns out that it uses
standard GTK+ printing facilities. Emacs is built with GTK+ interface
for quite some time now, so I suppose there should be no architectural
problem in using GTK+ for printing as well. Please correct me if I'm
wrong.

Do you think it is feasible to implement GTK+ printing in Emacs? I
believe it will deliver great user experience improvement, for many
users.
