Cannot change print output font from Kmail

I have 2 installations of kmail running under Suse 10.3. Using the "Printing output" setting in Kmail I cannot change the font that is used for printing. I can change the font for the message body no problem, and the font name for printed output is definitely written to the kmailrc configuration file e.g.: "print-font=Utopia,10,-1,5,50,0,0,0,0,0". The print preview (presumably using ghostview) seems to always show some default font but where that font is set I have no idea.

I'm running SuSE 10.3 and have the same problem. If I set KMAIL to a fixed font - it completely ignores the setting. I've tried several fixed font settings - none of which work.
