Bitmap mode renders the graphics to a bitmap first, then sends that bitmap to the printer. The bitmap usually takes up quite a bit more memory for the printer than the GDI drawing method to the printer. It could be the printer doesn't have enough memory to load the bitmap and print it. This occurs most frequently on laser printers with small amounts of memory (<4MB). You could also try getting an updated printer driver from your printer manufacturer.
