The page layout for FF6 suddenly changed to different dimensions for the portrait and layout screens. This does not happen on any other printable application or with other browsers.

I went through the about:config routine and not there is no line item for print.print_printer although ff still prinet, just wrong.

The protrait layour is square and about 6X6" and the landscape is the old portrait page. Using portrait I can only print about 1/2 page then another page starts.

Have gone through printer settings [Brother MFC 822-]

This affects no other program except Firefox.

In about:config, did you reset all the settings for your printer? When using the filter line, less is more (i.e., if you just filter using print you will see more preferences to reset).

I am thinking it is not a printer problem rather the settings in firefox that determine the page layout sizes. Portrait is a square about 6"x6" while landscape id the normal portrait sized page.

and that is exactly what is printed out the portrait is verticle and the landscape is horizontal but both are only about 1/22 page of content

Will resetting all of the print items affect this page sizing problem?

it is like there is a hidden page break somewhere but only on firefox.
