I haven't found an option to print from Bluefish itself yet, however
if you just need syntax-highlighting, you can do so with vim, like
this:

vim "+ha >test.ps" +q test.php

should print syntax-highlighted to a postscript file. ("+q" is for
quitting vim immediately after printing.)
If this is useful enough for you, it might be possible to elaborate on
it (like printing to pdf straight away) and add it to "external
commands" in Bluefish, for convenience.
