Sorry it does work on Firefox 122. (I have an old computer.)

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Core::Printing: Output' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.

Thanks! I can confirm the bug in ESR115 and other older versions, and I can confirm that it's fixed in newer versions. Testing with mozregression --find-fix, it looks like the fix range was
https://hg.mozilla.org/integration/autoland/pushloghtml?fromchange=e01e64c4d032cbd8c06d226d9e614b1c1cc9c451&tochange=8d007937f977db59d7eb8dd24fd8dae0b779df13
...which means this was a version of bug 1744363.
We're unlikely to uplift that fix to ESR115 at this point - ESR versions typically only get fixes for crashes and security bugs, not fixes for correctness issues (particularly this late in the cycle; note that 128ESR is already available, and I think 115 isn't supported at all for much longer, per e.g. "special notes" at https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-enterprise-128-release-notes )
So I'm going to mark this as a duplicate of bug 1744363 which is where this was fixed (for versions >= 122).
