User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040206 Firefox/0.8 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040206 Firefox/0.8 When I print preview the article in the URL on my machine I end up with 292 pages of mostly blank space. If I print this same article from IE6 it prints 4 pages. I have seen this behaviour on almost all MSNBC articles. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open the URL 2. Click File->Print Preview and wait 3. Scan through the numerous blank pages Actual Results: It produced 292 mostly blank pages Expected Results: It should have produced 4 properly formated pages Almost everything is bone stock. My theme is the default Firefox one and I have only added a couple of extensions (nothing about printing though). This has plagued me for some time but I thought there was already a Bugzilla report on it. I checked but could'nt find anything.
This is already fixed in nightly builds (though it still doesn't format the pages particularly well). *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 212984 ***
