Not yet. And for obvious reasons I'm not willing to update right now ;)

No problem here.
BTW:
pdfinfo a.pdf
Title: a
Creator: ConTeXt - 2011.03.11 11:45
Producer: LuaTeX-0.65.0
Page size: 595.276 x 841.89 pts (A4)
File size: 5253 bytes
PDF version: 1.6
pdffonts a.pdf
name type emb sub uni object ID
------------------------------------ ----------------- --- --- --- ---------
ZWRPON+TeXGyrePagella-Regular CID Type 0C yes yes yes 18 0
That file was generated with MKIVtexgyrepagella-regular.otf using mkiv?
Now if I print that via CUPS-PDF.
pdfinfo cups-a.pdf
Producer: Apple pstopdf
Page size: 595 x 842 pts (A4)
File size: 2891 bytes
PDF version: 1.3
pdffonts cups-a.pdf
name type emb sub uni object ID
------------------------------------ ----------------- --- --- --- ---------
CFOFGB+TeXGyrePagella-Regular Type 1C yes yes no 4 0
du -b a.pdf cups-a.pdf
5253 a.pdf
2891 cups-a.pdf
So CUPS does some font conversion here. I would assume that will also happen when printing to a regular network printer. Maybe this step breaks on your system. And that is why sending the file to the printer directly causes no trouble.

PS: Is there a way to force luatex writing fonts in CFF instead CID format?
