I was waiting if the upgrade to feisty would do - by any chance - the trick, though to no avail. Print out is still totally unusable.

In search for alternate solutions, I installed the epiphany-browser and had to find out that I observe the very same problem. (cf. attached print-preview!)
I cannot speak for the original submitter of the bug, but for me it is obviously no longer a firefox bug but rather something related to the general printing system.

(The attached file "Screenshot of faulty Firefox Printpreview" of my first posting of 2007-03-02 was erroneous. It is a screenshot of the "print-version" of the sample web-page, though *not* the output of the print-preview menu-option of firefox itself! The firefox print-preview is as patchy as the print-out sample of my second post.)

Just for sake of completeness:
