Though grey writing on white background can be a printing headache, as printers have to dither black ink to make grey, so you get fuzzy printing. But there may be an option to always print text in full black. The print preview looks a bit worse, mostly for being a bad font. Inter-character spacing seems too much, inter-word spacing is too little, and inter-line space being too little, as well. The first two being quite noticeably different between the original webpage and print-preview, with the line spacing being something that becomes really noticeable because of the other two issues. For a permanent solution, I'd be inclined to try the following: Locate your userContent-example.css file (inside the .mozilla directory, in your home space). Read it, and create a new userContent.css file in the same place. Put some overrides in for print media to use a font that you find easy to read. Then restart the browser to use your CSS. e.g. Start off with the following, and customise it. @media print { /* Most printers impose margins already; and some browsers do, too. Stop even more margins being added to them. And reset some other parameters for all elements. */ html, body { margin: 0 !important; padding: 0 !important; color: black !important; background: white !important; } /* Set all text to be this font, by default. */ * { font-family: liberation-serif !important; } /* Set some elements to use a different font, if you want, for various types of headings. */ h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, th, caption, label, legend, dt {font-family: liberation-sans !important;} code, pre, tt { font-family: monospace !important; font-style: normal !important; } /* Get rid of the underlining of links that you can't click on, any more, because they're on paper. */ a {text-decoration: none !important;} } -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.25-78.2.56.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
