Is not a Inkscape bug because is not on Inkscape code. To me is like
saying that inkscape has a bug because your printer is not working.
Inkscape does work in this case (proof of this is that you were able to
export it as a PDF without problem).

When you send it to print it will be sent to the printing subsystem
which means the data is passed to CUPS or whatever software your friend
has installed. You should ask him what exactly is he using, because if
he is using cups-pdf to print to PDF this has several limitations and
the resulting  PDF is of lower quality than PDF produced form Inkscape.
cups-pdf creates a PS and then converts it to PDF. This is bad in many
ways because PS has many limitations and can't represent many of the
features a PDF or SVG can, and the software which converts PS->PDF is
tricky and many times it screws the original file (I've been through
this several times myself).

So, bottom line: unless inkscape is doing something nasty to the data
sent to the printer subsystem (which I doubt) is not a bug in inkscape.
Can you try if the printing preview in the printing dialog is correct?
If it is, the problem is in CUPS, cups-pdf or whatever your friend is
using.
