This is clearly offending google EULA.
cubewerx set up a WMS server for google maps data and was asked to stop :

http://209.85.129.104/search?q=cache:H3rTgK9-MzAJ:www10.giscafe.com/ng/article.php%3Fid%3D43937%26group%3Dcomp.infosystems.gis+google+maps+wms+server&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=4&client=firefox-a

The only way to legally access google maps data, hence to print it, is through 
a browser. No server side access other than using a javascript-enabled 
browser on the server, which does not look like a very clean solution....
