is no way to customize Header/Footer. The Windows-version of Mozilla has this

1. open "Print Preview"
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
no "Page Setup"-button

Expected Results:  
"Page Setup"-button should be available

Printing and the "page setup" dialog is only available when using Mozilla's
Xprint module (see http://xprint.mozdev.org/ and
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/xprint/) for printing, the PostScript module
doesn't support that.

so what's the next step - WONTFIX, or a valid enhancement request?

p.s. I can't find the suggested dup. Are you thinking of bug 126802?

The Windows release of SeaMonkey 1.0.1 has a complete toolbar within Print Preview, the Linux release does not.

Is there a tweak (in about:config) that will enable the complete toolbar and why does one release have it while another does not?

I found the lines in about:config that required changing and the toggle between Portrait and Landscape needs a little work, specifically the image of the page, 

Portrait appears fine at first, Landscape does not change the orientation but does chop it off on the right side.  Toggling back to Portrait produces scroll bars which should not appear at all.

Selecting Print in the Print Preview displays the Print dialog box, but also displays a second box that I cannot print from within Print Preview (bug 126802).

It would be great if these features were working.  FWIW, I'm using SUSE Linux 10.1.
