Font matching across multiple computers

I'm having an issue where the font I see in print preview does not match from one system to another. This subsequently causes two different systems running the exact same software printing the exact same thing to the exact same printer from the exact same application to print out in two different fonts.

The application is web based. Both systems are running Chrome.

Any ideas?
 
Well I finally figured it out on my own so for anyone who stumbles across this post with the same problem:

It's the default font settings in Chrome. In Settings/Appearance/Customize Fonts. On some machines the fixed-width font was set to Consolas and on others it was set to Courier. This was it! Matched them all up and now everything prints in the same typeface regardless of which machine printed it.

Easy solution but what a pain in the ass to figure out!
