I think it could do with some more commenting of exactly what it's
considering a printable string(s).  I'm pretty sure it's doing the
right thing, but if you're not already familiar with the OF
multi-string convention, it would be easy to get confused by the
code.  Other than that

Plese consider a follow-up patch to address David's concerns.
