I have managed about the same "success" rate! <g>

Phew! At least we know it isn't particularly something we have done. 

I have cc'd this to my OS/2 general news list, for general information.

Is there one particular bug report applicable?

The odd thing is that some of my OS/2-eCS colleagues don't experience any
trouble except for a two page print - banner logo on page 1 and the table of
rates on page 2, which was my only hassle up to Firefox 0.7. 

>Due to the nature of the problem, I shall monitor the Mozilla 'Bug List' for details of a resolution.  In the meantime, I can only suggest you switch to Internet Explorer or Netscape when you need to print pages from our website.  

Yes, I still have an older Netscape, which we use occasionally for testing
and debugging our own website. 

I will watch the fixes reports with some interest.
