It should.  It works for me, printing all column data.  If it doesn't work for
you, maybe you could describe in a bit more detail what fails exactly?

tshark should use your currently active profile settings, but in case you've
changed your Wireshark profile, you can always force tshark to use a specific
profile with the "-C <configuration profile>" option.  (Ref:
https://www.wireshark.org/docs/man-pages/tshark.html)

It seems that at least some engineers have Wireshark installed then?  For those
engineers, you could send your profile to them so their settings would match
yours.
