Firefox 2.0.0.4, when run under Ubuntu Fisty 7.04 would print two almost blank pages for each page printed. Both almost blank pages had a thin line of dots at the top of each page, which later appeared to be attempts to print the page's header and footer.

Firefox has two sets of margin adjustments, one for the page and another for the sheet to be printed.

It appears that the default margin information Firefox sends to CUPS is wrong.

To print both a pages header and footer properly on my HP PSC-2175 I had to set the page and sheet margins as follows:

     File > Print Setup > Margins & Headers/Footers
          Top: 0.5 Left: 0.5 Right: 0.8 Bottom: 0.8

     File > Print > Properties
          Top: 0.25 Bottom: 0.5 Left: 0.25 Right: 0.5
