Are you sure the server does not send wrong content type header?

Do you have an example URL?

Comment 2

Attachment: It is a server page

When I click print at a button in the web page, the answer is to download the attached file, not the display of the page I was watching..

This is a pdf-file.

I asume the server is not sending the correct content type "application/pdf". 
Opera and IE is handling this better than Firefox, but it is still a server bug.

The quick fix will be to ask owner of the server to change his configuration, so this pdf file is sent to the browser with the correct content-type header.

No reply, INCOMPLETE. Please retest with Firefox 3.6.13 or later and a new profile (http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Managing+profiles). If you continue to see this issue with the newest firefox and a new profile, then please comment on this bug.

I have just experienced this today (and have experienced it before). The two sites I have experienced this with are nelnet.com and clearbenefits.com

I am using Firefox 16.0.2. I'd be happy to reproduce in the office.
