I've a fairly new install of hardy, I've installed all recommended patches as
of today. I do have a HP printer and I'm using the HPlip printing software
quiet successfully (was really impressed the network scanner facility work out
of the box!)
However, I'm having a real hard time printing from Firefox.
The fonts are on the whole terrible. Scrunched up and overlapping. This
happened on the release that shipped with hardy as well as the recent update to
ff3-rc2
What's more, if I print to a PDF file, and open using the standard PDF viewer
it still looks awful.
I've tried installing some non-free packages too such as msttcorefonts and
not much has happened really.
The rendering on the screen looks good for the most part, but the printed (or
rendered to PDF) version nearly always looks a bit off.. I though the default
hardy homepage was a good starting point
