How to stop Firefox 4 printing expanded hyperlink information.

When I want to print a web page (example, FF support info) every hyperlink on the page is automatically activated and printed out in full - sometimes running to many extra pages of unwanted text. I cannot find a setting on the printers' software nor on FF to prevent this. The FF User Preferences for each printer don't have a setting either, as far as I can see. If relevant, the two printers I have are (a) HP Laserjet 1000, and (b) Canon MP190 colour.
