It's a bug in an underlying library. A workaround has already been
implemented in Dia, so you should see it fixed when 0.97.3 gets released.

In the meanwhile, you can get around this bug by exporting to some
format using a non-Cairo filter (like pixbuf-png) and printing the
resulting image or document.

You can also compile the upcoming 0.97.3 yourself.
