I work with the map from above URL and like to print what i see on screen. But nothing of the map will be printed.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to example-URL
2. Work with the map (rezize, move, zoom, whatever..) (this is not really necessary)
3. Print the page

Actual Results:  
Does not print the map, but shows it in the print preview. Only prints the other objects of the page.

Expected Results:  
Should print what i see in print-preview

worksforme with linux seamonkey trunk build 2006021217

Can you reduce the page to a testcase?

Ok, let´s try to examine the bug a little more:
Now i tested different printers and printer drivers on different windows xp machines with today´s trunk-build. All show the same behavior, the printed page doesn´t show the map.
At least, i outputted postscript-code and pdf to file and analysed it.
http://rz-home.de/~mwinklba/output.ps
http://rz-home.de/~mwinklba/output.pdf
The files contain the map, but it is completely covered by two white pictures of 1x1 pixel size which have a width and height of the map-size.

Seems that Seamonkeys/FF printing-engine has problems with every mapbender map. For mapbender projects homepage see http://www.mapbender.org

Another example-URL for the problem:
http://wms1.ccgis.de/mapbender2/frames/login.php?name=mb&password=mb&mb_user_myGui=mapbender

IE 6 does print the maps. 
Opera 8.51 can´t render the maps at all.

Could you verify whether you experience this issue in a recent release of SeaMonkey (or nightly)? Please also consider resolving this if all is well. Thanks.

From comment 5, I understand that only MsIE v6 can print these maps.

Did you ask the sites or MapBender people ?
What did they answer ?

NB: From comment 2, this issue could be Windows only... :-|
