In the 19th version of Firefox printing routine was changed, and for the worst.

First of all, how the hell should I guess, that when I'm in preview page mode, change in a "Scale" parameter will affect printing result? That's just madness. It looks like an option for view, not for printing.

Secondly, I can't get a page printed correctly. I have a page formatted to perfectly fit on an standard A4 paper. And up to Firefox 18.xx it worked like a charm.

But not now.

When I use "fit to width" option, page gets too long and it doesn't fit on a paper.

When I use "scale", printed result is shifted to the left side of the paper, completely ignoring margins set in a "page setup" window.

Well, what can I say - in Chrome browser it prints just fine.

Do you have a specific page that does this? Is it PDF's, HTML, etc?

It turns out - yes, only specific page is behaving this way. This one
