I can't say if there's a problem on Mac OS X, and I'm no Mac user/
developer either, but I'd recommend to try a newer versions first. There 
are probably many differences, and a potential bug may have been fixed 
already.

Regarding QtWebKit, I've seen a lot of fixes between 4.5.1 and 4.5.3, and 
it's still acting a bit differently on UNIX and Windows for example. I 
have never tried to print QWebPage's, though.

HTH, René
