Try resetting your printer margins in about:config.

Filter = print_margin

Right-click and select Reset for both margin_left and margin_right for that particular printer, and then restart Firefox. If you have ever used other "printers" in that Firefox Profile, you'll have separate groups of preferences listed for each printer.
