Chosen solution

I don't plan to buy a certificate, so I don't know what the problem is, but here's a general issue:

When a page uses certain style rules, Firefox views that as a creating an unbreakable block of content. If the block is too long to fit where it falls naturally, Firefox will force it to the next page and then any excess that doesn't fit on that page will simply disappear off the bottom of that page while the remaining content appears on the next page.

As these situations are identified, people file bugs, but they often take a long time to fix because -- I admit I'm speculating here -- printing isn't a very exciting thing to program.

Hi, some what sites have a print friendly icon to click. Please check if there is one some where that you may have over looked. Or there is a save function on some sites to download it.

I do not know what this looks like that your trying to print but another way is to take a screenshot https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-screenshots and to print the screenshot of the coupon.

Please let us know if this solved your issue or if need further assistance.

Mozilla's dialogue box won't support preview so i's very irritating cause my paper & toner aint cheap, mkay? I saved the mangled output from Mozilla as a PDF but now can't even save that for y'all to gape at. There ought to be a law, mkay? On the bright side, a user here can"preview" his Posted response which was precisely the issue with Mozilla's browser on printing certs from Rest.com

Please mouse to the top of the browser to a empty spot and Right Click and turn on the Menu Bar. Go to File and will find Print Preview there.

You can call up Print Preview using either:

  • "3-bar" menu button > Print
  • (menu bar) File > Print

However, unlike Chrome, Ctrl+p bypasses preview and goes straight to a print dialog.

And if it looks just as bad in preview as in print, see: http://help.restaurant.com/why-cant-i-print-my-restaurant-certificate/

kay now I can preview its 3page spread of what the other browser combines into a single page print out, not sure why Mozilla's unable to print it as a featured singular page at origin or other browsers, many thanks y'all
