I got a reply and this was interesting:

Also seeing this on
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-GB; rv:1.8b4) Gecko/20050731

However, a little digging with DOM Inspector reveals that this is probably
intended behaviour:
* the image holding the line is assigned to the class "noprint";
* displaying the page in print preview reveals the message "To see all the
details that are visible on the screen, use the 'Print' link next to the 
map.";
* the 'print' link works as intended.

Workaround: use the 'print' link.
