Could you please read the bug writing guidelines 
at https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Bug_writing_guidelines to see the 
kinds of detailed information needed in a bug report (eg the full build ID/version of Firefox you are using).

If you're actually looking for support, the best place to go is: http://support.mozilla.com/

(I'd also suggest using the latest version of the beta, since printing fixes have been made recently).

Thanks!

I'd guess this is almost certainly bug 635768. Trying the latest build from http://nightly.mozilla.org/ (NB: not the beta12 release, the fix was later than that) will probably fix it.
