This is wontfix. See the discussion in bug 75338 for an explanation. (Basically,
our contextmenus are too large and the number of times people would want to
print through the contextmenu doesn't weigh up against adding another item;
particularly since we've been rigorously cutting out contextmenu items.)

So how do I print the contents of a popup window?

1. File a new bug to get the "print" key on your keyboard implemented :)
2. Select "open in new window" - then you have a full new window incl. all
neccesary menus

Control+P will work I guess (at least in Windows), but newbies won't know that.

Every other item in the navigation toolbar is represented apart from print.
Seems like a bug to me.
