There are two files in attachment, which differ only "cellpadding" attribute within <table> tag. When I print this page with the cellpadding set to "0", the page separators (except for the first one) are printed twice. A print preview of a file with cellpadding "1" looks correctly.

Reproducible: Always

vdemin,

Are you still able to reproduce the problem in a recent nightly build of Firefox?

Over here, I created 2 tests from your attachment 500028 [details] and attachment 500029 [details] 

http://www.gtalbot.org/BugzillaSection/Bug621677-attachment500028-cellpadding0.html

http://www.gtalbot.org/BugzillaSection/Bug621677-attachment500029-cellpadding1.html

and I can not reproduce the problem (2nd page separator is, you say, "printed twice" in the cellpadding="0" test version): I get 3 printed pages in print preview with Firefox 44.0.2 and Firefox 47.0a1 buildID=20160304163750 in both tests. 

WORKSFORME

Regarding your attachment 500028 [details] and attachment 500029 [details], please note that both your tests
- did not declare any doctype
- rule="none": it's rules, not rule 
https://www.w3.org/TR/html4/struct/tables.html#h-11.3.1
and anyway, by default, a table does not have any borders
- 'normal' is the default, initial value for 'white-space';
https://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/text.html#white-space-prop
so there was no need to declare style="white-space: normal;"
- <div>sample<div> blocks had no closing tag; in my tests, I replaced <div>sample<div> blocks with <div>sample</div>
- 'width: 100%' for table elements is not needed in your tests and should not be part of your tests; I tried your attachments with and without 'width: 100%' and it made no difference

But, again, I get expected results: the 2nd page separator is "printed" once (not twice) in your cellpadding="0" test version.

vdemin, please check your tests again, this time, in a recent build of Firefox and let us know your results. Thank you.

Hello Gérard,

yep it seems fixed. I can't reproduce the issue in 44.0.2.

Vasyl,

Thank you for your quick reply.

Since the problem appears to have been fixed, since we do not know what would be the bug number and for other reasons (the bug has never been reproduced or confirmed in the first place), then it is better to resolve this bug as WORKSFORME.
