Same problem here with

Firefox/1.0.4
A minimized test case is needed for any progress to be made here. A hang bug in
Firefox: General won't be getting much attention anytime soon. Sounds like more
of a plugin issue (Flash?).

Actually I can't get this page to print directly on Firefox (I haven't tried the little "print" link, but I was able to print another page directly on this site without a problem).

The problem URL for the print is:
http://playstation.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/playstation.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=232

I'm using Windows XP Professional SP2, Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.11.
this is ancient. Can anyone still reproduce?
