![]() It comes and goes with HTML/CSS/javascript coding mores. However, this has been a problem all along. Back to my old saw: "Just because one can change a thing does not mean one should change a thing!" No wonder everyone needs tons of patience and/or über-high bandwidth Internet access these days. It is sad to watch an older site (which was working fine) get "Responsified" and balloon overnight from 25KB or so to over 1MB with no real additional content but now lots of fancy three-bar menus and sliding content panels and so on and so forth. And yes, I realize that many of the new Responsive web pages with tons and tons of CSS3 and HTML5 are increasingly harder to print by anybody. Might I suggest a "blank slate" approach? Printing things has been an issue with FF from version 1. Their developer tools are still second rate so I use FF for page development, but for everyday browsing and printing, Chrome kicks FF you-know-what. Second suggestion: find out what Chrome is doing and copy it for crying out loud! Their automatic Print Preview function, and nearly 100% accuracy in printing web pages, is why I moved to Chrome as my primary browser. At least this way one at least has a chance to see the problem before wasting ink/toner/time on it! I've suggested this before but I'll suggest it again: add a user-selectable Option so Print Preview is the default print (Button AND Ctrl-P) action. Using the URL from Comment 28, I am confirming that FF-de-jour fails while Chrome-de-jour and IE11 work just fine. ![]() Besides, paper size might mean losing a few lines of text. I'm using Letter size paper and can't print past the first page. A4's longer and narrower than Letter anyway, so it wouldn't cut off the bottom-it'd cut off an edge, maybe. That's only the valid fix for people who actually are using A4 paper. > OpenPrinting group, could you please "confirm" the bugzilla ticket and see for > confirmed by the many posts and even by Till Kamppeter member of the > Please, mozilla team, this bug has been reported since september 2004 and > The solution would be that Firefox do as Till Kamppeter (member of the > You have to do this for "each" printer you would use and for "each" user. > inch)" regardless of what has been set by default for the pinter. > printer selection list we can see that the default page size is "Letter (8.5x11 > In the print menu when we click the "Properties" button beside the > The workaround is to do like in Comment #13: When the proper page size is set in firefox itself (system changes are unseen by firefox), several pages can be flawlesly printed. Having firefox reading the settings (in "cups" for linux, i don't know for XP and Mac OS but the bug is the same) would avoid such problem. So mozilla firefox doesn't seem to read the printer's default settings and selects "Letter (8.5x11 inch)" as it's own default printer properties.Īlso, beacuse firefox doesnt read these printers' PPD setings, "each" user (multi user desktop) needs to change the default page size in firefox. Mozilla Firefox doesnt check the printer's default settings, so each time a printer is added/modified, we have to reset the default page size (to A4 intsead of Letter (8.5x11 inch) in france) in Firefox's own printing properties for each new printer and per user. Here in france we need to set the default page size to A4 and then printing works. Printer selection list we can see that the default page size is "Letter (8.5x11 inch)" regardless of what has been set by default for the pinter. In fact, in the print menu when we click the "Properties" button beside the The text was cropped at the right side, I had to resize to 95% to see the text Only of 1 offered, and expanding below the bottom of the page.
