This must be fixed. The "print first page by default" behavior is completely counter intuitive and annoying. It also affects the preview. For the life of me I cannot understand who would ever want to print just the first page by default! When selecting "Print", a window pops up listing precisely what it's going to do: either "All" or a range or current or whatever. How could this by any more obvious? Firefox overriding this by some unexplained behind-the-scenes-default is just WRONG. I tried printing out the page http://linuxshellaccount.blogspot.com/2008/03/beginning-your-spec-file-for-building.html and when the preview showed me just one page I tried opening the main frame only and found out I couldn't (try it). At that point I downloaded and installed Opera which printed everything perfectly. (I'm not switching to Opera, but if this is any indication, I better keep it for emergencies.)
