I replicated issue with various users in the office except for one. This user has Firefox 47 and scale function with landscape works fine.

Can you provide a website URL to test (or a simple HTML document) and attach the print output, please.

Could this be a similar issue to bug 1303051?

Ariel, could you test with Firefox Developer Edition, it's probably fixed:

Quite likely, since I cannot reproduce in Nightly when printing from the parent process.

Sorry for the late response. I couldn't gain access to my Bugzilla account.

Looks like the issue was fixed with version 49.
