sorry for the resend, I had a typo in the original so I deleted it at
reposted:
It looks great in firefox too, I just don't want to do it manually.

I found a solution:

using the internet explorer version(yes I know, bleh, but it's the
only one that supports print in free version) of iOpus's really cool
iMacro tool I stumbled into about an hour ago I came up with a
solution:
1.) download and install the IE extension from here: 
http://www.iopus.com/download/
2.) create a new macro with that reads the following and save as
whatever name you want:

VERSION BUILD=303806
'Print tickets with the loop run for the YourProjectURL project.
'will print tickets 1- the max entered in the loop option box
TAB T=1
TAB CLOSEALLOTHERS
URL GOTO=http://yourProjectURL/ticket/{{!LOOP}}
'print browser page
ONPRINT P=*
PRINT
WAIT SECONDS=3
'3 seconds might be much

note: easiest way to create it is to "record" and "save" a macro, then
edit and past over everything, changing yourProjectURL to something
useful of course.
3.) if not already done, in IE, setup your page AND printing
preferences (via page setup).  preferences are needed if default
printer settings don't work for you out of the box.  I find I
minimally need to adjust the page margins in page setup for the
tickets to not extend off the page.

4) highlight the macro in the sidebar and select the play TAB
5.) at the bottom of play Play(LOOP) button on with 2 text fields
above it, one is disabled.  in the enabled one, enter the number of
your highest ticket value, say 399
6.) press Play(LOOP) and run to your printer to catch your print outs
and refill paper.  (I would suggest maybe slow printer times in the
office, depending on the number of tickets)

so, summary.

- install iMacros in IE
- create the above macro
- enter max ticket number in loop play option
- press play.

I love simple solutions.
