I did have this problem, but it is now fixed for me. Are you sending to a network printer on another machine (my case a Solaris box), since Sun released some Solaris patches to fix some of the problems at the server side. Anyway I am snv_97 FF3 and a Solaris 10 printer server and it works....... (Still not happy with FF3 for other reasons but at least I can use it now!)
