When I print from the Mozilla Internet, example, a resume from USA Jobs, it prints sideways. I want to print my resume which is stored there, however, it prints the letter sideways instead of top to bottom as a normal letter would appear on 8.5 x 11 paper. If I go to Internet Explorer it prints properly top to bottom. I contacted the printer maker and they showed me it was Mozilla being the problem. Can you tell me how to fix this problem?

File > Print Preview - select Portrait and then print the page. That setting should hold until you change it again.
