The page at
http://www.srh.noaa.gov/obshistory.php?obvar=KBKF&zoneid=MST&offset=25200 prints
correctly in Internet Explorer.  In Mozilla, the graphic at the top prints on a
separate page.  The (typically) three pages of data in the body of the document
is truncated to a single page, and the graphic at the bottom of the page appears
on a separate trailing page.  Print preview has the same problem as the printed
page.

The date in the middle of the page is updated frequently at the site, and varies
in length, but the above problem is consistent - happening every time I test it

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open the site listed above
2. Select print or print preview with default printer properties
3. Observe printed or previewed results.

Actual Results:  
See above

Expected Results:  
Internet Explorer seems print the page as intended.

using default theme

This is a widely used page of the National Weather Service web sites.
