Description Edward 2018-04-20 23:04:20 UTC
Description of problem:

When printing a web page in Firefox (64-bit) double-sided, the footers do not print on odd-numbered pages (1, 3, 5, etc.), it prints only on even-numbered pages (2, 4, 6, etc.). 

Scaling the text has no effect on the headers or footers.

Printing single-sided, the footers print on every page.

Printer is an HP DeskJet 3520.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Firefox 59.0.2 (64-bit)


Additional info:

This does not occur with the current SeaMonkey 64-bit version (which is based on Firefox 52 (ESR?), nor does it occur on a 32-bit laptop with Firefox. Footers print on all pages, double-sided.

Occurring on Fedora 28 with Firefox 60.0.1 and prior versions installed since release of Fedora 28.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 28 is nearing its end of life.
On 2019-May-28 Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for
Fedora 28. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases
that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as
EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '28'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 28 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 4 Ben Cotton 2019-05-28 23:06:18 UTC
Fedora 28 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2019-05-28. Fedora 28 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
