Problem relates to printing websites which contain more than one page. And happens for any printer selected or the print preview.
The first page is printed OK - the second page has only the footer printed - and no other pages are printed.
This used to happen when using the Firefox with Ubuntu 9.04 - was fixed when upgraded to Ubuntu 9.10 - and has reappeared with Ubuntu 10.04.
It is only for certain sites - the main one I've come across is Twiki based sites. However, the latest version of the actual Twiki site seems to be OK.
However, I've found a TWiki site which shows the problem.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Browse to https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/TWiki/TWikiInstallationGuide
2. Select Print Preview
3. View results
Actual Results:
Only first page is printed properly - second page only has footer on it - and no other pages are printed.
Expected Results:
All pages should be printed properly.
A WORKAROUND.
Using Firefox on Ubuntu.
Browse to website.
Press Ctrl-A to select all text.
When printing go to the Options tab and check 'Print Selection Only'.
This then results in a correct print.
If I had the next year or two spare and didn't need to earn anything I'd possibly be able to get to the cause - but I don't so I can't!
