User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.0; rv:26.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/26.0 (Beta/Release) Build ID: 20131205075310 Steps to reproduce: Firefox needs a new Print Page tool, with a modern UI that will make it easier to print pages from the internet. Also, there should be an option to have "print as screenshot" that will allow for example to print the google homepage as you view it in the browser window.

Yes, this has been there for quite some time, but it's different from what I wrote above.
Could you give us more specific information? And for additional features you should open a separate bug.
And you should move this to Core > Print Preview ;)
Where is Core > Print Preview ? For example, since a new UI is coming on the next firefox releases, the Print Page buttons should also have an updated UI style.
Component: Toolbars and Customization → Print Preview
Product: Firefox → Core
Update, moved it to Core. :)
Please file a separate bug on the suggested "print as screenshot" feature. I suggest we constrain this bug to be about UI improvements. Can you be more specific about which parts of the current UI needs to be improved? and how? Please elaborate with details.

Summary: Create a new Print Page tool → UI improvements for Print Preview
OK. Here are a few suggestions: - The new upcoming FF UI will have a quite different style in buttons, colors, etc. The Print buttons should also follow this pattern. - The toolbar buttons of Print Preview are not centered according to the window size. They should follow the same pattern as the pdf reader (or similar). - The previewed page in Print Preview is not centered (why?), either horizontally or vertically. - There should be in the toolbar zoom buttons. - The window name should show which page is currently being previewed on screen.

I agree with these points. We should ping someone of the Australis project about the buttons, colors etc. But things like zoom buttons would be a new feature.
OK, there are new two new bugs for the new UI features. Ping someone you know for the UI project and let us know about any updates.
From FF29, the UI has changed, and the print page should also follow the same UI.
We have a lot of UI/UX bugs open with suggestions. Comment 8 is largely covered by those.
