 How can I force logging of all print jobs on a Windows 2003 Server? Is
there any easy way to filter out those log messages?

Weird, you are right for Windows 2003 the System log does have those
messages. I had used a Windows XP system for test and it was giving a
different behavior.

Is there a utility that will dump a logfile using some input criteria (like
eventid=10) to an ascii text file, or CSV? The Save As function in
Eventviewer saves to proprietary format. The export feature only exports
the metadata but not the body of each event message.

You may use powershell:
Get-EventLog -logname system | Where-Object {$_.EventID -eq 10} |
Export-Csv -path output.csv
