358790 - technet2.microsoft.com - doesn't offer same content (box w/link to "printer friendly") to Camino or non-Firefox UAs

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Tech Evangelism Graveyard :: English US, defect)

Description

[Henry B. Hotz]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8.0.7) Gecko/20060911 Camino/1.0.3
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.8.0.7) Gecko/20060911 Camino/1.0.3

HP 1320 Printer.  Default print format is 2-up, double sided.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Go to web page.
2.(with 2-up, double sided layout selected) print the main pane
3.Try again with 1-up, single-sided, and a specific page range from 1 to 99 pages.

Actual Results:  
Only the left half of the first page prints.

Repeated attempts with other options give the same subset of the web page.

Expected Results:  
Entire article printed.

Camino prints the entire web page (the first page of the page ;-), not just the desired pane.

Safari 2.0.4 prints all of the specific pane, but many text lines extend beyond the right margin and are truncated.  Also there is exteraneous text at the bottom:

InitWizard("6291dce1-4ea8-4b4f-a9c1-23926ab6e8dd1033");

Firefox 1.5.0.7 has the same printing behavior as Camino, but it displays "Page Options" to the right of the title, and a survey question at the bottom that neither Camino, nor Safari show.  Printing the "Printer friendly" version that only Firefox makes available works correctly.

The not-printing portion of this bug is almost certainly bug 154892.

The not-getting-printer-friendly-option portion is probably Tech Evangelism; please inform the webmaster that all Gecko browsers support the same HTML/CSS feature set and point that individual to

Since there's little value in just another dupe of the abs pos bug, let's turn this into a TE bug.

Looks like the layout is wonky and the right-hand box is entirely missing when identifying as Camino, but all looks OK when identifying as Firefox.
