The last update to Firefox provided a modified PRINT feature that works improperly. It prints the second page upside down. I have tried every possible way to correct this, but I cannot. 

 Please return the old version of PRINT feature.  It worked great. Very efficient.  It did not ask me a whole lot of decisions before letting my printer actually print.

And it actually printed the second page, and all subsequent pages right side up. BTW, my printer is a HP laser jet. 

 Sure hoping you will fix this ASAP, and meanwhile you can give us back the old PRINT.  Call it OLDPRINT.  We will be happy.   Please rush.  I print everyday.      from Aggi Raeder   aggi@earthlink.net

Firefox previous print interface window:

For now you can revert to the previous interface by setting a pref to false on the about:config page. print.tab_modal.enabled = false

In order to change your Firefox Configuration, please do the following:

  1. In the address bar, type about:config and press the Enter key.
    • The about:config warning page may appear. Click Accept the Risk and Continue to continue to the about:config page.
