I had some problems to print a content from ajax with iframe method, i found a solution mayby this can help you :

i replaced the line :

html.push('function printPage(){focus();print();' + ((!$.browser.opera && !opts.leaveOpen &&    opts.printMode.toLowerCase() == 'popup') ? 'close();' : '') + '}');

by this line :

html.push('function printPage(){focus();try { document.execCommand(\'print\', false, null); } catch(e) {window.print();}' + ((!$.browser.opera && !opts.leaveOpen && opts.printMode.toLowerCase() == 'popup') ? 'close();' : '') + '}');

it's seems to work for me...
