Can you please file a bug report at

This should work. This does work for me on a GNU/Linux system, so may be
something with the way external commands are called when printing to a
file on Windows.

Btw, it seems obvious to me that I would want to avoid any file or
directory names that have '&' in them, but this may not be obvious to
everyone, and I do think Octave should support this.
