I’ve always used CSS to handle page breaks when printing from the web, and its always been easy and pretty straight forward to implement. However FireFox would stop printing after 1 or 2 pages from what should have been about a 10 page print job.
After some googling I found that a fair few people have been having the same problem as me, only in FireFox though, every other browser is fine. The problem was the CSS I was using:
page-break-after:always;
FireFox didn’t like this. From what I found on the web the work around was to use page-break-before instead. I searched bugzilla to try and find out more details on why this happens, the best I could find was this lengthy discussion, with instances of this problem from 2002. So my lesson from this is to use page-break-before:always instead of after.
