I wouldn't expect you to get garbage when you print from FireFox to your
printer. It sounds like the wrong PPD file was associated with the
queue for your printer. What kind of printer do you have? How is the
queue configured?
If it's Parallel or USB attached
# /usr/lib/lp/bin/printer-info -a /dev/printers/*
The queue configuration can be gotten with
# lpstat -p queue -l 2
-Norm
