Hm. It sounds like your browser is trying to reload the image for printing, and
is coming up against the fact that Lugnet is trying to prevent a lot of server
load by regenerating mosaics. Which browser are you using?

One way to do it is sort of a two-step process, not printing from the browser.
Try this:

1) Right click on the finished mosaic
2) Select "Copy" or "Copy Image"
3) Open "Paint" (or your image editor of choice)
4) Paste the image (Control-V or Edit->Paste from the menu)
   (you may have to adjust the image size for smooth printing)
5) Print!

I used the following settings:  64 studs wide, 1x1 plates (view from side),
solid regions, .75 gamma correction, colors: black, 2 shades of gray, white

In case that doesn't work for you, you can try this (hopefully all the same
settings):
