This has been an issue for a long time. I’ve been trying to avoid Chromium based browsers, but Firefox seems to be unable to print a lot of web pages without cutting off the content between pages. This is Firefox specific, as it doesn’t happen with Chromium browsers. It’s really a pain in the ass when I need to print something I have to open another browser and print it from there. I see tons of complaints about this online going back for years. I just spent the past two hours trying (unsuccessfully) to print a recipe correctly. I eventually gave up, opened Edge and printed from there. The current state of web browsers is dogshit. It’s either give up all of your privacy or use broken stuff. Neither is good.

    it’s the site’s fault. it’s their responsibility to provide a print layout.

    If they don’t, the browser has to do best guesses and FF probably doesn’t try to be very smart.

    And it’s not worth the effort either. Printing on paper is becoming rare.

        true. still, even popular sites don’t provide decent CSS for printing but rather PDF download.

      While I completely understand what you’re saying, this is only an issue in Firefox and it also affects printing to PDF.
