We have looked through this and considered it. We need to write up a description of why this happens.

The answer is what you see cannot be changed.

Here is the general answer:

In a chart window, there is a certain number of pixels between the chart bars. This number of pixels can be seen at the lower right of the chart.

When printing, usually printers have a much higher resolution and also will have a different height to width ratio than the chart window. The ratio between the printer width and the chart window width is calculated and this ratio is multiplied by the bar spacing in pixels. When printing, this new pixel width is used. This can alter the first Date-Time that you see in the chart when printed. This cannot be changed.
