Does any of these fonts support Latin-9? If not, that's the reason
for the empty box instead of the Euro.
Also, the font database in ps-mule-font-info-database-bdf seems like
the font for Latin-9 characters is not set.
Alternatively, if you can find a BDF Latin-9 font and install it, your
text should print okay.

This isn't supposed to work: 'bdf-font-except-latin is for Latin-1
characters, not for Latin-9. But if your printer has Latin-9 fonts,
you could use 'bdf-font-except-latin if you modify
ps-mule-font-info-database-latin to handle Latin-9 instead of Latin-1.
Anyway, the original issue was this:

So, even if Latin-9 is not supported because Intlfonts doesn't have a
font for it, it doesn't mean only Latin-1 is supported. Try printing
Latin-2, Latin-3, Cyrillic, Thai, Japanese, etc.
