I can't explain why, but try to install the >print/gtklp port and change the print command in firefox to >gtklp. Installed webfonts and gtklp and restarted x and no go still. :( One thing I did notice is that all the others go to a normal print window, but the two browsers go to some custom printing screen and say something about "postscript/printer_name" instead of the normal KDE cups installed printer. Would that possibly cause part of the issue?
