Are you printing on the same printer hardware that the printer file device specifies?

Once you drag/drop it to Windows, it’s all converted to ASCII. Parts of a printer data stream such as control characters wouldn’t make much sense since there’s no way to know what printer codes to convert to.

If you want to print it, create a printer session and just route the spooled file to it.
