I have not had this problem on Kubuntu 10.10. However, FF will often only
print the first page of a long html document and truncate it. The fact that
it is happening with browsers and not other programmes may have something to
do with encoding and how the application deals with it. That is only a guess
as I have seen nothing like this myself. I might try another browser and see
if it repeats itself with that, say Chromium or Rekonq (which is part of
Kubuntu, but uses webkit and not khtml as Konqueror does). FF uses gecko. If
all three engines produce the same error then I would think that it is
something else.

Most have noticed it. The problem is not the browser but the CSS, the
content is styled for the computer display not a printer. Some websites
have a CSS style sheet to make the content printer friendly, others
don't. This same senario applies to mobile content that uses a CSS file
to format content for a mobile device. Your cut and paste approach is
the same method I use to print content I want a hard copy of to make
reading easer for me. What you loose is the look and feel the designer
wanted you to experience.

How about if you print to PDF? You might need to install cups-pdf to try that
out.

What brand and model of printer?

I hadn't thought of that, thanks. I'll give it a try when I have a few
minutes.

The printer is an HP OfficeJet 6310.
