Shouldn't be required as a simple change in the KML file (JPG instead of PNG) is all that's required.

I also tried the 82143A font. Some font sizes result in missing dot lines, similar to a defective matrix printer.

Example: NORM mode, type Pi and SCI9. Nothing happens. Pressing PRX makes Pi appear on the printer. Another PRX shows the SCI9 command, a third one prints Pi.

Of course all fonts I tried are fixed-width fonts, not proportional ones. Courier New 12 pt has the same problems, the printout starts at the left border. It looks like there is no leading space at all.

I just tried the 82240A Roman font 12 pt with 14 print lines, and here the leftmost character still is directly at the left border while this time the rightmost character almost touches the right border. Also the line spacing is much too narrow.

All in all I did not get a convincing printout with any font and setting I tried. Courier still is the one that looks best. If it only would not start that close to the left paper border.
