When I upgraded to Natty (Ubuntu 11.4), I was automatically upgraded from firefox 3.6.x to 4.0.x

I want to change the print margins, however when I go to File > Page Setup, it only gives me options for changing the paper size and orientation. There is no longer any sort of tab or option for margins, header & footer, etc.

Am I missing something or is firefox?

Try this:

EDIT:

  • Goto about:config
  • Look for print.printer_<PRINTERNAME>.print_margin
  • change those to what you want :D
  • Restart the browser.

ENDEDIT: Should help you out.
