	I send the following to gecko@ a day or two ago:

	I have a LaserJet 6mp, connected to:

FreeBSD 9.0-CURRENT #0: Sat Oct 23 08:15:53 EDT 2010 amd64 

	running:

cups-base-1.4.6_2
cups-client-1.4.6
cups-image-1.4.6
cups-pstoraster-8.15.4_6

	Using this, I am able to print correctly from:

	the command line
	LibreOffice
	Acrobat Reader
	Opera

	I am not able to print correctly from:

	Firefox 3.6.14
	SeaMonkey 2.0.11

	In both cases the output is squished both horozontally and
vertically so that it takes up ~40% on the desired space.
	Checkng the mailing list archives back into November shows
nothing that matches this.


	Does this match your symptoms?

	Respectfully,


					Robert Huff
