I try it on four computer in my enterprise. And on all computers was this problem.
All these computers are in domain. OS is win 2000 and XP.

Then I try it on my home computer (win xp) - print preview display correct.

I found that problem is depending from printer. On HP ink printers (HP 2000C,HP 970Cxi) print always work, but on HP laserjet printers (HP 1200; 4100) works only if I not use domain (logon as local user)

Related to other printer font specific issues in print preview like bug #127422 and bug #161569 ?
And possibly bug #238415

Similar problem: goto http://www.hs.le.ac.uk/postgrad/msc/medstats/
Then File > Print Preview. Only the header was displayed on page 1 of preview, 1/3 of the body of text in the actual web page was displayed on page 2 of preview,  and the footer was displayed on the top of page 3 of preview.

This bug was reported on Firefox 2.x or older, which is no longer supported and will not be receiving any more updates. I strongly suggest that you update to Firefox 3.6.3 or later, update your plugins (flash, adobe, etc.), and retest in a new profile. If you still see the issue with the updated Firefox, please post here. Otherwise, please close as RESOLVED > WORKSFORME
