[Bug 1080251] [NEW] Firefox print failure for certain webpages

[Stefan Czinczoll]

Public bug reported:

Hi there,

firefox 16.0.2 fails to print with my 12.10 Ubuntu and 12.10 Xubuntu for
some webpages. I've added an example page as attachment. The same page
prints fine with epiphany, so I can sort out any CUPS related problem.
Printer is a Kyocera FS920 on local usb. Most pages print okay and I
suspect Javascript issues. When trying the example page, a notification
pops up that the page has finished printing, but none.

The problem can be reproduced with a fresh Ubuntu 12.10. Using Firefox
and trying to print the critical webpage a second time, printing status
says "Sending data to printer". However, the  job in the CUPS jobs list
is gone. Online LED on the printer blinks and nothing is printed. The
problem does not occur with the same page and Firefox 16.0.2 on Windows.
I will try other Linux distro later, probably this is upstream.

Kind regards,

Stefan
