Printing a JPanel comes out as blown up screen shots

Question

am creating a high school management system with java. I have a function where am supposed to print student report cards. I decided to put the contents to a JPanel and print the JPanel.The problem am having is that if a print to file i get the Jpanel the way it appears on the screen but if I print to the printer i get a blown out image.Below are the blown out print and the print from a file

print out from file(i.e from XPS Viewr)

by the way am using a hp 2515 deskjet from testing purposes

You can take a look for RenderingHints and other thing is Font mismatching. Your frame font is something different and printer Font different.
