Problem was found when using PDF995. This spawns a new Tab when printing to display advertising. However problem is not restricted to this.
When a new Tab is created whilst Print Preview is active the new tab is displayed with the Print Preview toolbar at the top instead of the normal navigation etc toolbars. Also all other tabs that may have been open in the window are now shown, (normally hidden during print preview). All the tabs also have the Print Preview toolbar. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open two or more web pages in tabs in one Firefox window
2.Print Preview one of these pages.
3.Either print page to PDF995 printer, (or other printer that spawns a new tab), or switch to another application and use this to spawn a new tab.
Actual Results:  
New tab is displayed in Firefox window, with Print Preview toolbar. 
Tabs for all current pages are displayed. All tabs similarly show Print Preview toolbar.
Pressing Close in any tab other than the actual Print Preview tab does not remove toolbar.
Normality is apparently restored if the Close button on the actual Print Preview page is pressed.
Clicking Window Close button closes all tabs without giving "Close multiple tabs" warning. This is true even after the Close button on the Print Preview tab is pressed.

Expected Results:  
Not sure. Normally all other tabs are hidden when Print Preview is active. Probably best if new tab remains hidden as well.
