Whenever I use print preview for a bunch of pages, eventually Mozilla will crash
and no longer load print preview until I reboot the browser.

Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Use Print Preview Many Times
2. Attempt to Use it Again but it crashes
3. Without rebooting, see if you can get it to work

Actual Results:  
Until I rebooted, no ammount of process stopping or Mozilla total-closing or
updating could fix the issue.

Expected Results:  
It should have correctly continued to use Print Preview.

Don't know about it crashing, but it does break further print jobs after a few
print previews.  Moz simply silently fails.  There isn't a quick little popup
saying it's printing the page, it just continues doing whatever.

One has to restart Mozilla.

Print preview also has an annoying problem in that once you close the preview,
you have to run preview -again- before you can attempt a print.  Seems mozilla
thinks that it's still inside print preview and says you can't print while
inside preview.
