I have the same issue in FS X. As workaround I just copy (Ctrl+C) & paste (Ctrl+V) the text to NotePad and print it there.
But actually I prefer to take flight plan from http://flightaware.com/statistics/ifr-route/ and put it to the http://simroutes.com/ (use Generate Routes link). When flight plan has been generated I just print it and download flightplan as file for FS. If their database does not contain appropriate STAR/SID then I take it from latest charts (for instance http://www.airnav.com/airport/KEWR) and fix pln file manually.
Be careful, some pln files from simroutes.com you can't open in FSX because they have non-sequental numbers of waypoints:
waypoint.2=YAMMI, I, N40* 45.90', W105* 04.08', +000000.00, YELLO4
waypoint.4=LAR, V, N41* 20.27', W105* 43.26', +000000.00, YELLO4
It's easy to fix
waypoint.2=YAMMI, I, N40* 45.90', W105* 04.08', +000000.00, YELLO4
waypoint.3=LAR, V, N41* 20.27', W105* 43.26', +000000.00, YELLO4
and it will work like a charm
