(Get the code!)
Has anything changed related to this in the development branch? I still notice this irritating bug in Firefox 3.5.5.
It seems to me that the reported effect (though possibly not the root cause, if Cairo is doing anything else raster-specific used by the code in the printing path, the effect of other settings may slip in) should be fixable by adding a few statements to override the hinting and RGBA settings in the printing path to none. Would you accept a patch to do that, and if so could it get integrated to the next Firefox 3.5 minor release?
I realize the Firefox developers may be busy with other issues and not have time for this. So I would be happy to spend a few hours myself getting to know some Cairo and learn whatever has changed in the Mozilla build system since I last compiled it to work on producing a fix for this symptom, if you could use one, since the hard-to-read print output (or conversely, hard-to-read on-screen rendering without the right options) has been annoying me for a long while now.
