Many web pages seem to be impossible to print correctly. I've struggled with
this for years. Now when that happens I 'print to file' as a pdf, then do my
print from the pdf file. Not ideal, but it works.
The change to qt print system may be a factor, but I've seen this in firefox
(only for some sites) long before kde4 came on the scene.
