User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:19.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/19.0 Build ID: 20130215130331 Steps to reproduce: Viewed http://www.jstatsoft.org/v45/i03/paper, which is a pdf. Select file | print. Choose options to print 2-up, double-sided, flip on top. Print went to networked HP8100. It may be significant that the first page includes a small colored image. Also, when viewed in the browser some of the text (the citations) display in blue and have hyperlinks. This is with the release version of FF 19 under Windows 7. Actual results: Printed pages showed 2 black rectangles on each side of the paper, occupying the space that should have been filled with text. Expected results: Printed pages show the article 2-up. Note that when I printed the document in the same format with Adobe Acrobat reader the pages came out as desired. I also tried printing to the printer from FF using 1-up single-sided printing. The text was visible in this case. The quality was poor however (it looked more like a scan), perhaps because it had been shrunk slightly to accommodate the header and footer. That's probably a separate issue, though an important one. I tried printing selected pages, excluding the colored graphic on the first page (specifically, 7-14) 2-up, double sided, flip on top. These also came out with 2 black rectangles on each side.
