Firefox prints pieces of a single page on multiple pages. For example, if a page is only one page long in IE, it will print one page. But if I print the same page in FF, it will print 5 pages, and each page would have a different section of the original web page. Same thing is valid for web images. I have tried upgrading to the latest version of FF 3.6.12, and I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling my print driver (Brother MFC-7420), and have tried rebooting my PC, and have tried changing the print settings from within the Printer's menu and the Firefox print settings.

Check the paper size that is selected in your printer's preferences when viewing those prefs through Firefox. Or maybe the left & right page margins are set unusually wide for that printer within Firefox.
