When printing from firefox, the 'shrink to fit' option is not working properly. It used to fit the entire width on one page, now it tiles the width to multiple pages. How do I fix this?

When I print from Firefox, I click 'print preview' first. That is where I can choose the 'fit to page' option. When I do this, it usually fits the whole width of the page to be printed on the first page and what doesn't fit on the first page, it puts on pages 2 and up. It used to work, now all of a sudden, it does not work.

The only thing I can think of is I recently updated Java Script on my computer.

I also have this problem where I used to be able to shrink a 2 page doc to a single page. Since upgrade to FF4 it no longer works - but you can choose say 60% and it will work. All used to work fine in FF3

I figured out the problem. Somehow, the page size was set to A6. When I printed a page after having reset the page to letter, everything went back to normal.
