The question says it all really. Print Preview option is missing from both the File menu and from the Print dialog box when you select Print. I use Print Preview a lot to avoid wasting paper.

A relevant issue might be that the Mac OSX app Preview is currently having trouble with various printers including my Xerox and so, temporarily, the default application for all Preview items is now Adobe Reader until Apple get their act together. Perhaps this is affecting things?  

Thanks for any help

Having this problem with OS X 10.7.1 and FF 9.0.1 as well. I do get Print Preview with OS X 10.6.8 and FF 8.0.1.
