User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:82.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/82.0

Steps to reproduce:

Selected a portion of a webpage
used File->print

Actual results:

I can print the whole thing or a specific page however, I cannot print the selected portion of a webpage.

This works on Firefox 80 however, it fails on Firefox 82 (Currently my Firefox nightly is at build 20200830093945). System is Ubuntu 16.04. It is also failing on Ubuntu 18.04

Expected results:

Somewhere in the print dialog, if necessary, within the 'print using the system dialog', it should be possible to print just a selection. Reference Firefox 80, which behaves correctly.

Page range "Selection" radio button is no longer enabled in System dialog on Windows10.

Confirming this issue as verified fixed on macOS 10.15, Ubuntu 18.04 and Windows 10x64. Verified using 82.0a1 (2020-09-09) and 81.0b8.

Status: RESOLVED → VERIFIED
Flags: qe-verify+

This cannot be verified on Ubuntu 16.04 because 1) bug 1662946 is not fixed - until that bug is fixed, it's not possible to see the print dialog and 2) as of last night's build 20200910093613, firefox crashes if print is selected (new bug coming shortly)
