The symptoms seem to get worse if reproducing this issue and exiting the print preview while the print preview is in a loading state. The tab is no longer responding to actions like (tab refresh button, back navigation button,etc).
Note: This behavior seems to be encountered with both Fission enabled & disabled.

After discussion, we're going to try to get this fixed in 84…

Custom margins should reset to default values if there is an invalid value detected.

The problem is that we are not taking into account the unwriteable margins in getSettingsToUpdate, but we are when setting the maxHeight and maxWidth within the element. These values are async properties and are resolved within fetchPaperMargins. I think the best route forward would be to move those calculations directly into updateSettings underneath this call (https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/16d30bafd4e5276d6d3c632fb52a6c71e739cc44/toolkit/components/printing/content/print.js#544-546), return the paperWrapper, and then modify changedSettings if necessary.

I also had made a typo here: https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/16d30bafd4e5276d6d3c632fb52a6c71e739cc44/toolkit/components/printing/content/print.js#477. That should read customMarginBottom.

The patch landed in nightly and beta is affected.
:emalysz, is this bug important enough to require an uplift?
If not please set status_beta to wontfix.

I can still reproduce the issue for some of the paper size on latest Nightly across platforms

Bug 1674106, delete custom margins from userChangedSettings when updating an invalid margin after a paper size switch

Beta/Release Uplift Approval Request

  • User impact if declined: We can lock the print UI for a user with custom margins that switches between paper sizes multiple times.

This is an edge case, but still is an issue that we should address

  • Is this code covered by automated tests?: Yes
  • Has the fix been verified in Nightly?: No
  • Needs manual test from QE?: Yes
  • If yes, steps to reproduce: 1. Open the new print preview dialog
  1. Set paper size to us letter
  2. Set right/left margins to 4 each
  3. Switch to A5 paper sizes. Notice margins reset to 0.5
  4. Switch to A6 paper size. Notice margins are still 0.5 and the UI is usable
  • List of other uplifts needed: None
  • Risk to taking this patch: Low
  • Why is the change risky/not risky? (and alternatives if risky): no strings, just two lines of code that address an edge case
  • String changes made/needed: n/a

Bug 1674106: validate custom margin values when paper size changes and change if necessary

Sorry, I believe the first patch would not require beta uplift, as it should have made the cutoff for 84
